This video has spread like wildfire on social media, especially on Facebook, where users have been liking, commenting and sharing the post at an alarming rate. And if you remove the scare that the man in the video got, the rest of the video is actually quite entertaining.
In the footage above, you can see the owner approach one of his hens when he realised it was lying on its back with both legs up in the air. Thinking that it was probably dead, he touched it but then got quite a scare indeed.
In the end, it turned out that the chicken was just playing a game. In the video, you can hear the man say, ‘Hey, what are you doing?’ Maybe this isn’t the first time that this playful hen has decided to play dead like this.
