Hi, I made this thread for people who have random poultry questions, but don't feel like making a thread about it. Feel free to ask any poultry related questions, or answer other peoples questions!
 
Okay! I have one.
I have a mystery.
I have an ISA Brown hen who keeps escaping from the pen. I have clue how she does it.
It would make more sense if she were a small chicken that could fit though all the gaps.... but she's not. She's an ISA Brown.
HOW IS SHE ESCAPING?!
All the fences are 3 meters tall and wobblily wire that wouldn't hold her weight. Also the whole reason that she is escaping is so she can lay her egg in the rabbit hutch.

Is there a hole in the fences?

Nope! The only other chickens that get out are Flash, and Buddy *shudder*. Who both jump over the fence.

So she must just be jumping over the fence.... Hmmm....

I think I'll just have to stalk her tomorrow morning!

This is her. Her name is Tawny. Another detail I forgot, is she was found wondering around town... she had escaped from her old owners...
All I know is that she is a devil! 🤣

It happens. And boy do I ever hate it when it does. Especially when I've wing clipped a hen to get them to stop flying over a fence, and they climb it instead. :he
