Chickaboo Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I just thought I'd share another funny Phoebe tale. Our next door neighbours have had builders doing a patio for the last 2 wks - Phoebe loves humans (I think she thinks she is one ), and she can see them going backwards and forwards and through tiny gaps in the fence. So for the last week it has been her mission to get to them - she has tried bouncing over the fence (not very successful with clipped wings and an 8ft fence), commando crawling under our decking to search for a hole, digging under the fence etc etc, on Friday she was banned from the back gate area of the garden, so she took to tip toeing (seriously) over there when I wasn't looking! Anyway on Saturday she disappeared I hunted everywhere, called and called and she wouldn't come, then I heard some laughter next door, so I go round the side to find her sitting in the builders wheelbarrow, pleased as anything, clucking away to this group of men She then quite happily let this 'stranger' carry her back to our garden!! She has a bit of a telling off, and is now on a very tight leash. Naughty hen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
