Walking on the Wild Side
A Blog by Chicken Wrangler Sara
We have one hen who much prefers to be on the opposite side of the fence Since Max is not interested in chasing chickens, it has been fine.
Penelope, Max’s sister, visited recently and she is not so considerate of the chicken on the wrong side of the fence. I tried returning the hen to the chicken yard but several over-amorous roosters chased her around.
I ended up keeping her in a cage in the front yard during Penelope’s visit.
Most of the roosters are gone now so the hen is safe in the chicken yard. She is not quite convinced and keeps finding her way out. I’ve decided she likes to walk on the wild side. And as long as it is safe for her, I will allow it. Hopefully, the other chickens will not get jealous. I’m not ready for a chicken uprising.
