“Loretta’s very curious and follows us around the yard,”  says Karly. Loretta did not like being left alone. So Karly and her husband Mike started taking her out for little trips, and soon, she joined them in their paddleboarding.

This chicken wasn’t a chicken in the sense of bravery, however.

She’s not a silent partner, either.

Loretta displays no fear of the water or paddle movements, rather, she enjoys them. She sure is defying the dictionary’s “cowardly” slang definition for chicken. And Karly enjoys her leisure time more in her company.
