Funny. I'm so glad she was alive! Was ready for another sad chicken story and then she sprang into action!
I can see how you would jump out of your skin!
Years ago, my parents went to bury a pet mouse after they found it belly up, all 4 legs in the air and stiff [i](I know - the pet mouse thing requires some explaining - I rescued the poor lab mouse from school when summer came and it was left all alone in a cage with no food and water - we had it for 3 more years...) [/i] Anyway, dad digs the hole and he and mom are undertaking a solemn burial, gently placing the stiff mouse, whose name was Mouse, in the grave (I was away at college). All of a sudden much like a jumping bean he sprung up, came alive and scared the living poo out of them (I know the system will change c--p to poo so I beat it to the punch). We never learned what the heck was wrong with him that he was dead and then undead but we have never forgotten the experience!
