chicken dying in neighbor's yard

[iheartnh]

Yikes! I hope your neighbor comes home soon so you can get her. I would be frantic and my instincts would be 'get over the wall' - but sounds like that is REALLY unwise in your situation. Please keep us posted on her condition and your rescue efforts. Poor girl!

I would have already been over the wall and got her back.

I would knock on the door if no one answered I would hurry and get the ladder and be in and out before anyone knew I was there.

Happy ending! The neighbor finally called (I had left my name and number on a piece of paper under his doorstep). The hen is doing well and will get her wings clipped this weekend. I'm glad I didn't go into his yard though because I'd rather be safe (and I was with my daughters all day) than risk my health, despite how awful I felt for the chicken. I hadn't yet clipped the wings of the two youngest birds we inherited, so this is a good reminder. All of our chickens are curious and good flyers, so it really helps to clip their wings.

Thanks for all your good words today! I really appreciate it.
