catching is easy once you learn "The Stance". Everyone who has dealt with chickens has developed some version of The Stance (and you all know what I'm talking about). 1. Spread your feet slightly more than shoulder's width apart. 2. Bend your knees a minimum of 90 degrees. 3.raise your arms out to your sides at chest level and bend elbows at a 90 degree angle while adopting a grasping or clutching posture with your fingers. 4. Bend forward at the waist bringing your head and torso closer to chicken level. 5. Thrust buttocks out to maintain balance. A side to side crab-like shuffle is especially effective in this position for cornering or herding the chickens. Please be sure your co-workers get some video footage for us to see. Good luck!

Wonderful!!! Exploring their new addition to their happy abode. No eggs...but I love my freeloaders...

Not too shabby of a shack for a bookkeeper with no skills...

A little interior ambience...

I'm laughing WITH you, NOT at you...as my Chocolate Lab devoured a box of donuts (box and all) in under 10 seconds. Then...they look at you like this...and all is forgotten...

This is what a donut overdose looks like...
