First the guineas rush and fly over sqwuaking and yelling at me, then the turkey wobble as fast as they can go and get under my feet to trip me up. The chickens wait patiently at the coop for the others to do their job of convincing me to feed them then they take up posts in a wide circle so that I have to toss feed everywhere! <br /><br />Glad you got your sheep back in :)JLBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02258610911896060722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9113326581808647426.post-17354710749972444562009-08-26T09:46:28.066-03:002009-08-26T09:46:28.066-03:00I also had an escapee yesterday.

Fortunately the pigs weren't interested in going anywhere. <br /><br />I see you chose not to inform your neighbor about how chickens gang up on cats. Our barn cat, Bibbs, was hanging off the chicken wire in the run last night with a mouse clenched in her teeth. She'd come into the coop with me to hunt mice and Chicory barreled in after me. The chickens ran for the run and seeing I wasn't protecting the cat formed a circle underneath her. After removing our overly helpful goat from the coop, I rescued the cat.<br /><br />Wish I'd been there with you to see the swarm of dragonflies. Nature and animals are the best entertainment of all.Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15845252729189467819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9113326581808647426.post-68570249752058573882009-08-26T09:04:28.840-03:002009-08-26T09:04:28.840-03:00You're too funny!

I think those would sell pretty darn well!Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09081652747471904560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9113326581808647426.post-52817795001964590662009-08-26T00:11:39.197-03:002009-08-26T00:11:39.197-03:00Wow, amazing about the dragonflies!

"My cat will get them!"<br />It took me a few minutes of explaining and having her into my yard to watch her cat 'pretend' to stalk the hens, then run like a bat outta hades when they so much as clucked at her. I then told her that the chickens are generally supervised when out of the coop and she seemed quite relieved. <br />I almost want to tell her that we are getting a goat, just to totally freak her out. Would that be wrong?Lola Novahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14215529779296867987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9113326581808647426.post-74664764078060982992009-08-25T23:13:49.123-03:002009-08-25T23:13:49.123-03:00Wow, look at Marshmallow!
