I had a chicken get stuck behind a box upside down...what in the world are they thinking?? I found her after a few hours, so she was just a little disoriented for a little bit. I always worry about the horses stepping on them when they get in there with them, but I think they both watch out.
You know, after a traumatic event like this, and all the extra attention, she might end up being a special lap chicken!
My daughter loves playing with her dolls, and well a real life baby like Popcorn and she was thrilled!
Popcorn is looking fine this morning, I have to finish some work up and seal my tiles (for my wood stove) Its very cold, rainy and windy outside, I was going to take her out this morning if she was fine, but the temp change would be a bit of a shocker and I'm betting all the other chickens/ducks/guinea's are pushing and shoving in the coop, I don't want to put her out in that.
We're due for snow tonight as well, so Im not sure what I'm going to do at this point.
Believe it or not my horse used to be terrified of chickens
I used to ride up a trail in San Diego - and at the top we had to go past a house with a little chicken coop and a couple of bantams, every dang single time, she'd STIFF Leg break and wouldn't go any further!
When I got my chickens a few years ago I was so worried about her, and at first didn't let the chickens get into her barn or anything. But now - she couldn't care less and it cracks me up everytime I see her eating hay with a bunch of chickens trying to get in there to look for bugs.
Popcorn is back in the coop. I took her out at lunch time and checked on her through the afternoon. At chore time OUT she came with her buddies to gobble up scratch!
