I was on the computer a little bit ago when I hear my 14 year old daughter yell, "Luke (the neighbor's dog) is in the chicken coop!" The dog is usually in a fenced area, but we don't have a fence. My ten year old was chasing the dog, that had the chicken in his mouth around our yard when I got out there.
Edited to add: The door to the coop was open b/c we let them out to free range in the evenings.
The dog ended up dropping the bird and there was no blood. She lost a handfull (or MOUTHfull) of feathers and seems scared...but otherwise unharmed.
I guess my only question is should I expect eggs tomorrow, or is it likely that all 6 of them are traumatized and need some time to calm down?
