She wins, she gets to be mama

If she's going to climb a tree every day to lay in a nasty old nest and then sit, she is more stubborn than I am!

I do have to move her, it's not safe to leave her up there when I don't know exactly when hatching day is and I don't want her getting tangled in a net when she gets down to eat and drink

Problem is she is waaay up there, in a part of the tree that straddles the barbed wire fence

oh and we have no ladder, but I think my IL's do and I'm going to go searching. She's in a part of the tree that you can't climb do

branches too thin.
DH said we would move her tomorrow when he gets home. I have a dog kennel set up for her in the coop.

All I can get in the pictures is her little black and white tail and butt

(all that stuff is hay string, brought up by the blackbirds around here

)

Her tail is a little hard to see here, I took this one on the ground with no zoom..

That is so cool !

I would get her down as soon as you can too, because of predators...

I'd be worried about that tree branch going SNAP and down would come chicken. (Don't think she'd land on her feet) That branch looks thin.

How funny that she's THAT stubborn to be a mama. Clever girl.
