I can see it now, once they settle in, I open the coop up, and pluck one out before it all goes to heck.
It's worth a shot, at least for comic relief.
But what are your thoughts on the new environment? It's a disaster, and I will clear what I have to, but holy moly, I have to move the house...
Ah, we have six Rhode Island Reds, about a year and a half old, making eggs every day. We are going to try and corral them into a large metal grated dog kennel for the move, unless someone has a better idea.
