Since the chooks were little they have been deathly afraid of the evil broom. Not just any broom mind ya, only the broken down porch broom. I used it for herding when they were babies. Brought it out for old times sake the other day and yep, it still terrifies them.
Tonight I needed to handle Thor and donned one of my DH's jackets to keep from getting scratched accidently. This jacket is hideous - white, black, blue/green.
It would never had been bought had I been in the store with him to stop it.
Took care of Thor and took the jacket off and layed it across the nestboxes while I tended to other things.
Later, wondering why the chickens wouldn't go in the coop.
That evil jacket of course.
