Henergy Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Chicken Nugget escaped from our Omlet netting once, about a month ago. So I thought she'd got it out of her system ! Anyway, I checked them from the conservatory this lunchtime & could only see one. I assumed that Nugget was in laying. But I did notice that Chicken Little was pacing up & down. Just then from around the corner of the conservatory poked up Nuggets head - she'd managed to get over the netting again & treat herself to total free ranging ! So lured by food, she is now back & ran clucking into the nest box - obviously had an egg brewing ! Judging by the amount of poo by the conservatory I guess she'd been awol for quite a while !!! I'm a bad chicken mummy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

percy049 Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Three of our hens can fly over their 4ft WIR (we only shut them in there if we're mowing the lawn, cleaning the house etc). They only do it to come and see what we're doing tho! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlotta Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 I've come to the conclusion that if they aren't being naughty in some way or another then they must be ill! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
