Hen chases squirrels

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 

Unfortunately it happens so quickly that I've been unable to capture pictures or video but I have this 6 month old buff orpington RI Red cross that has this thing about squirrels.  If one is on the ground, she'll take off across the yard and chase it up a tree.  If the squirrel chooses to run around on the ground, Sunny (my chicken) is right behind him - wings out for balance.  I'm gonna hurt myself laughing at her.

Mom to 1 mille fleur, 2 sebrights, 2 RIR, 1 barred rock, 2 production reds, 2 silkies, 1 serama, 1 ameracauna, 1 mutt rooster and 1 I have no idea what she is, 3 feline babies, and a chihuahua!

Some of my girls chase my daughter's mini Aussie- she's not much taller than they are!
