Solitary chicken - need advice

Make sure you can get out if you shut the door behind you!

 

Yesterday when I went out to sort feeders and get the girls back into the run I managed to close the door whilst I was inside and my "handle/pully" thingy had unthreaded itself!!

 

I was in my PJ's so no mobile phone, OH was was out so I was stuck! What is even worse is that the girls were still OUT! Gin kept walking up to the door, cocking her head at me and then having a good ol' chunter to herself! I swear she was laughing!!!

Then she went and rounded up the other three and they all stood there mocking me!

 

I used my "jail" time well.........did a very thorough poo pick of the run and waited to be resuced.

 

I managed to free myslef by using the end of a pecka block to pull the pully thing.

 

Knight in shining golf gear arrive home too late to save me but had a good laugh at me

 

Suffice to say we will be tweaking the door/handle arrangment today

This is the funniest bit of a very funny story!

 

Am glad you aren't too traumatised.

 

Always carry a mobile phone.

My grandad locked himself in his in the same way

[Cooks]

I have suggested she install a panic button, I could be there in half hour to let her out and in that time her run would be poo picked to perfection.

And of course the photo opportunities are endless.........

Perhaps one of those red panic cords with the red triangle on the end would look rather fetching..
