My little OE hens and roo has been in the back for awhile now. No one ever flew out. They were happy in their big area with shade trees, little frogs and bugs. Today my mil had the idea to take her little hound/chihuahua mix out in the back to let him "play" with the birds and let her cats out. Not good.
The dog tried to go after the hens and to give my girls credit...they whooped him. Then the roo got in on it. I got the dog in and her stupid cats decided to go after a hen. Well the hens got so darn riled up they flew over the fence and the roo went too. Now they are running on over 6 acres and there is no way I can catch them. These aren't the most friendly birds but we were working on it.
So tonight I have to try to find them and get them back.
wish me luck
