My chickens reaction to the eclipse

[jnicholes]

Hello everyone,

So I got a funny story about my chickens. I went one hour north of my house to the path of totality of the eclipse. When I got back, I found a note on my door from my neighbors saying "Two of your chickens got in our yard. They can't go anywhere." I went and got them and I said to the neighbor "I am sorry." They said "don't worry about it, here's what happened, me and my husband were watching the eclipse, when we looked at your chicken coop as it was getting darker, your chickens were going CRAZY! They went on top of your hen house were flapping like crazy. Two of them were so scared they went flying into my yard!"

The chickens were scared of the eclipse apparently. They were like, "OH MY GOSH! WHAT HAPPENED TO MR. SUN!!! ITS THE END!!!!

That is my funny story, what do you think?

P.S. the photo is off topic, but I thought I would show what they were scared of.

They were thinking, "The sky is falling, the sky is falling ------"

That's funny. We only had a partial eclipse here and my chickens seemed to care less. Quite boring really. Well according to the chickens anyways. Lol
