LOL! I got a couple adults like that.. I end up clipping the feathers on one wing. It does not stop them hopping the fence, but does make them slower and go in circles LOL! For a lame woman such as myself, anything to slow them down is a bonus short of clubbing them!!

The roo, he is pretty good staying on the ground but my white orps used to be a pain until I got rid of them! I had one hen that insisted to hop the fence, and lay in the hay in the horseshelter. Would find her OLD eggs in the corner behind the roundbales at the end of the season.

Today we got rain. which, well, I will take it over the snow.. but its slogging time... mud to the ankles that will pull the shoes right off of ya!
Speck, I will need a bath after feeding this morning if I fall face first! Been known to happen!! LOL! Aaaah the trade of from winter to spring, aint it grand!! LOL! I vote we club the groundchuck and donate him to some poor redneck for supper.
