State a fact about yourself!

I saw Blue in my neighbors woods (inside a bunch of bushes, stickers, and trees). I quickly tied up my dog (who I was hoping would help me find her) and tried to grab her. She ran too fast for me inside the woods and I spent maybe 2 hours or so searching for her in the direction she went. I searched a wide area but still had no luck. She's probably even further out now. It might rain tonight. Poor chicken.

I'm sorry. I hope you can catch her next time!!

Aw! Poor baby! She may have already turned wild, but it sounds like she wants to stay, anyway, I hope you find her!

Sorry you didn't catch her.. I hope it doesn't rain for her sake. I hope she comes back again!

What I do if I have to do this is I sneak up on them, grab their tails, then pick them up how you normally would, then put them where you want and they're safe!

Get a fishing net and attach it a broom stick, you can sneak up better to her to snag her in the net.

Not a lot of people look into a "problem" before they attempt to take action:

Why we ship:
- To get virtually any breed to virtually any location (within country limits)
- Without it, most breeders would go out of business due to lack of customers
- Most local farm stores wont be able to get chicks of their own
~ It's safe because most breeders box it well, the chicks have yolks to digest for the next 72 hours, it's takes no longer then 72 hours to arrive, and mail services are forced to take good care of the box

Why they hate it:
- They claim they are forced to go without food or water for up to 72 hours
- They claim they are pushed around inside the box almost contently
- They claim it's they are too cold inside the box
- They claim it's cruel to ship males as packing peanuts (which they do that, but only in some small-medium orders, and it's not cruel at all, at least considering what a lot of local and commercial farmers do to their males)

I think it's cruel, someone ordered some and only ONE lived! I think I call that cruel...
