Apparently you can’t die of embarrassment..

Same here! We (not me) also run out with guns. I’ve got cattle farms above me, sheep/chicken farm beside of me..livestock are everywhere here. And those farmers have multiple guns. I however use pitchforks and apparently serving forks. I’ll admit I don’t know exactly what my plan is on how I’d use them 🤷‍♀️
So what you're saying is "grab your torch (flashlight) and pitch forks (or any fork)" ?
 
For those that need a laugh at someone else’s expense, read on.
My area is mostly farm country, with deep wooded areas. There’s been coyote sightings, and I’ve personally seen at least three. Needless to say I’ve been on high alert. Some neighbors of mine seen or heard coyotes in her backyard and called the police. The police in turn called animal control. (I guess in case it was just dogs, idk) While this was going on my hens starting making a ruckus. It’s about 7:30 pm, dark and cold, the chickens are up for the night. I heard my roosters crowing and what sounded like hurt/scared chickens. I grabbed my coat, and shoes and ran down to the coop. Long story short, the police, and animal control come by and there I am in.. pink Garfield pj bottoms, a Stranger Things tshirt, a polka dotted robe, a 15 year old parka, the fur lining on the hood it ripped and flapping in the wind. And to top it off I’m wearing my husbands work boots, with a serving fork in one hand (my closet weapon), and my sons lilo and stitch flash light.
Oh did I mention I have motion lights so my yard is lit up like the 4th of July.
In the end the game warden has to come and deal with the coyotes. (I’ll believe it when I see it), my chickens are fine and I didn’t die of embarrassment. However I won’t be going to any town council meetings any time soon…
Made my night picturing you in that get-up to protect those babies. I do agree that town meetings might be unattended for awhile! 🤣🥳😂 Or consider wearing those Garfield pants and get the laughing out of everyone right away. Bless you for your transparency!

I just returned from my little coop and yard...crop jammies on (polka dots and butterflies), snow boots no socks. Had to put the first two girls in their coop and the last two woke up just enough to hustle in on their own. They are staying awake later because they have Christmas lights on the wires in the run. Maybe I should play music in the day??

I LOVE it! Not just music, Christmas music!! Personally I play Queen and David Bowie for my girls.
I knew you’d fit right in!

I got caught by the UPS man trying to 'save my chickens' in a false alarm .He pretended not to notice I wasn't wearing my teeth.

Im starting to think our chickens are doing this for spite! Were you wearing polka dots somewhere? That seems to be the clothing of choice when “getting caught” lol (or complete nakedness 😂)
