It never ceases to amaze me how incredibly stupid a chicken can be! Coop & run wide open all day. Come bedtime, a couple missing. One roosting in a tree behind/over the run, another under the front porch behind wood-to-ground lattice work that she had to dig under to get where she is. Probably another one or two out; can't tell for sure.

The ducks & geese gave me a bit of grief tonight but everyone is in safe and sound

My girls are pretty good with bedtime; even the sultans know the drill now.

Quote: I just set a baited Hav-A-Hart over where Miss Idiot got under the porch, so she's a bit safer; no coon, fox, or skunk can get in there w/o encountering the trap first. Also discovered a dug out dust bath big enough to put a volleyball in; they've been there more than once.

I bet they've been PM'ing with Puppy - she's still escaping daily to dust bathe in her PREFERRED dust bath. She's such a bad influence...
