I was being silly...he lives in Tennessee.

Oooooooooh.
I APOLOGIZE!
I don't know where any of you are except to know that @theuglychick is somewhere in the backwoods of Louisiana where there's snakes, a drunk neighbor, and some wild chickens

Heck. That could be anywhere.

I'm sure it's no harm done.
Anyway it was a surprise diversion from waiting.

Did you catch that chicken yet?
Had someone say they were going to try using a chicken catcher when he was going for npip certification.
What's a 'chicken catcher'? I googled it, a vid popped up first, eventually found out it was a pole with a hook, tried making one, doesn't work very good, had a Jersey Giant cockerel running wild all winter Lol!
Vid that popped up first , love it!

Hes a real nice rooster.

I dewormed him first thing this morning.

He's crowing away!

No sign of the hen but I'll keep looking and keep y'all updated.

Blue Red Sport Game bantam... suspect he is a cross of Old English and American Game due to his earlobes only having a tiny bit of white... OEGB have red earlobes and American Game bantams have white... very pretty boy...

Lol I guess we were all hungry this morning.

Mayhaw berries?? OK going to google that now.

Mayhaw berries are somewhat like cranberries but less tart A little sweeter. The only problem is they only grow in swamps

It's a day trip from New Orleans, hence the post, I wish I could go hunt for the hen with theuglychick. Heck, probably about half way to Houston, y'all could come too!

Thinking if we were all down there, we could have found her by now. It takes a village to find a feral chicken.
