TAJ Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Last night we were in a hurry to take our daughter out to cadets, then off out ourselves - I totally forgot to put the chickens away before we got in the car! I have never forgotten them before - it was only at 7am when my husband saw Nutmeg walking around the garden he realised we had left the eglu open all night! They were in the Omlet netting and we have never seen a fox in the garden and luckly all were safe and very happy with their early morning freedom today - but I felt awful.

alison Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I went down to check mine the other night and found I had left the nesting box door off!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Easily done. I bet we have all had at least one experience where we have forgotten or been distracted. Thank goodness they were all OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I went to work one day and came back to find them having a whale of a time in the garden - they'd been out all day . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph101 Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Golly. I've only had one near miss so far... a few months ago, I'd gone to bed, sat up reading, them y heart started pounding as I realised I'd forgotten to lock them in! It was half past eleven! Narrow escape! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
