So I was torn between 2 stories. 1 about my 4 year old daughter having her sandwich stollen by big red, and this other story that I will tell you. We have 18 beautiful and very friendly chickens they have a very nice large coop that they stay in at night. So we live on a dead end street and we have no fence around our property. The chickens know that they are to stay in the yard, and when I am home and outside doing yard work or whatever they do stay in the yard. Now my neighbor across the street has a very nice yard with some beautiful mulch. So here is how the routine goes...... I go inside to make lunch or start dinner or something like that at that point the chickens very slowly start to make their way to the street the Pretend to scratch in gutter looking for worms, they slowly start to make their way across the street and then when they get just a little over halfway........ they run as fast as their little feet will carry them straight to the neighbors mulch and dig like mad. At that point 1 of 2 things happen..... either the neighbor comes out and the chickens take off and run home.... or I come outside and yell hey!! And the chickens come running home and look at me like what we didn't do anything we were here the whole time.
