A Blog by Chicken Wrangler Sara


Feeding the birds this morning was interesting. They always rush to get their food as if they had not eaten in days.

Some of the chickens are convinced what the ducks are eating is better. It is a case of “the feed is better in the other pen” when actually it is the same. Nevertheless, every morning at least one chicken flies over the fence to get a closer look at the duck feed.

This morning, the chicken got stuck.

It remained remarkably calm while I took a picture.  Then I carefully untangled its foot from the chicken wire and tossed it back where it belongs.

There doesn’t seem to be any damage from the acrobatic endeavor, and I am hoping it will be cured of its curiosity and stay on the chicken side of the pen.
