Funny, that's what goes on around here all the time! I came back from buying feed to find Buttons out of the pen made of welded panels, don't know how she got out, they are four feet high and too solid to tramp down. Then Thelma and Louise were out on grapevine hill. That must be why the lady was selling them, they are always getting out.
On the plus side, I have a guy that says he is coming to buy all the leghorns, sorry guys , no hatching eggs for the egg chain. I am cutting back, vacation coming up, and a new grandbaby in late July so I will need to go to Florida.Can you believe I have 4 empty pens right now??? But that will not last, I have a lot of young ones coming up.
A lot of the chickens are broody, another of my buffs is on the bandwagon now. Well, at least it keeps them off the streets!

? To try and keep the goats from mashing them down. I discovered many of the posts had few or no clips, so no wonder the goats can smash them so easily. Looks like DH was taking a shortcut that day. after I put an additional post and lots of clips, I put 2 goats into that pasture, and one went directly to the spot where it had been stomped! She knows that there are delicious grape leaves on grapevine hill! Then I was filling a water bucket for that pasture, and I get way the heck out in the outback, and the pump is hardly pumping at all, just kind of a drizzle coming out. DH was supposed to fix it, but he showed me how to wiggle the wires and get it going again... as if that helps when you are at the back of 10 acres!
