This morning I go out in the yard to feed the chickens. The flock is three chickens short and I immediately think of my cat. Thank goodness it wasn't the cat...the Rhode Island Reds jumped the fence into my neighbors yard. At quarter to 6 in the morning, I call my neighbor and she proceeds to chase the chickens around in her backyard screaming at them while she is wearing her house coat and slippers. Twenty five minutes later-she catches all three and sends them back over the fence. Totally late for work but definitely gave me a laugh. Just thought I would share!
Good For A Laugh
thank you! i hope your neighbor was screaming in a co-operative sort of way... so glad it wasn't your cat!
Makes a great mental picture ROFL!

It was definitely cooperative screaming. Of course, it would be so much easier if we could just say "alright ladies....time to jump back over the fence." I swear...sometimes I feel like I am herding cats not chickens!
LOL! Great story, you better give her some eggs!
ROFL maybe invite her over for a *chicken dinner*!

she must have something in her yard that they really like! bugs or plants or something. maybe they just like getting chased and screamed at LOL. be glad you have a good neighbor, keep her happy with eggs and chickens for sure. train them to fetch her morning paper?
