For my birthday this year, my mother informed me that she was going to purchase me a chicken swing. when she said how much it cost, my jaw hit the floor. I decided to build one out of a two ft. long branch and some small chain I had to make wind chimes. it turns out that when the chicken jumps on the swing she tries to catch her balance, then again as it swings back. this creates the momentum for her to "swing". my girls learned quickly that they did not like this constant state of unbalance. they havent jumped on it since a few days after putting it up...too bad. it was pretty funny
