abwsco Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 If you want one, get a Vorwerk as ours has cleared 7 1/2 feet from a standing start Would chicken high jump be an Olympic sport Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Freya my Columbine would definitely compete in that competition. There's nothing she can't jump over, my OH insisted I clip her wings and until he saw it himself he never believed she wasn't flying, she just jumps!

abwsco Posted May 23, 2009 Author Share Posted May 23, 2009 Update - the 8ft high barricade has been working until today when the little madam again just jumped over it I think she must be part Maasai! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meezers Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 I was going to suggest we start a sweepstake - I'll raise your 8ft and say 9ft anyone else want to join in ? Anne, you should get it on video and send it to you've been framed- you could put the £250 towards fencing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
