OK, if all my 13 chickens are in one spot outside, you know that they are either sunbathing, staying in the shade or see something interesting. So, when I looked out earlier, they were in one spot, by the fence. About 6 feet away is a stray cat!!!
We have a silly squirrel that seems to jump from tree to tree when I go out for the mid-morn egg collecting and feeding. Some days they get scratch and some days they get BOSS and it's on the BOSS days that he runs along the fence trying to figure out how to get past them - one way no wait turn around and run the other way. Poor chooks don't know which way to go - the BOSS or the squirrel!!!
