Meet Betty, The World's First Tweeting Chicken

If you thought chickens could only cluck and cackle, think again: there is at least one chicken that can tweet.

No, we don't mean the chicken can chirp like a little bird. We mean this Australian chicken can use Twitter and has been posting her own tweets.

Her name is Betty and she wants to connect with her Twitter followers and get into the Guinness World Records for being the first chicken to tweet.

It's not as easy as it seems, though. Pecking at the keyboard can be dizzying, and walking over it is not doing much to help her correctly spell words, which is a disadvantage. She has to correctly spell a five-letter English word to be able to reach her goal.

Betty came close on Oct. 14 when she typed the word "bum" but it still lacks two letters; however, it didn't stop her caretakers at The Chicken Treat from having a few laughs about it.

Perhaps Betty gets frustrated sometimes too and plans to wreak havoc but decides not to follow through with it anymore.

Sometimes, she even tries to send motivation and inspiration to her followers. Of course, it has to be translated from Chikenese by her friends at the restaurant.

Did somebody ask what "Chikenese" is? Here is the short answer.

There are some who find dark humor in the whole situation since the marketing ploy comes from a restaurant chain serving hand-stuffed, slow-cooked rotisserie chicken, and it has been in operation for 39 years now. We just can't be sure if the move is that of adaptation or survival for Betty but, until she enters the Guinness World Records, this smart and sassy chicken is probably safe in her coop and ready to tease everyone with her Chickenese tweets.
