Sunday Evening Chase!
Well I guess I need to rebuild my chicken run and use smaller wire. All the white chickens and the aricona excaped and started running from me and my lovely daughter Beth. We caught most of them and tosed them gently over the run and the rest that were out went through the fence. The only two that didn't excape were the two black and white chickens. This happened at 5:30pm, I shut the doors for the night and I could here them crowing and cackling at me for not letting them roam free. I did feel bad but it was either letting them run lose and get eatten by wild dogs (from foxes to wolves), wild cats too like bobcats to mountain lions or put them in their coop were they are safe to sleep at night. The next thing to do is find something to either weave into the wire so they can't get out or rebuild the whole thing. Well I'm gonna eat dinner and sleep for the night. Talk to ya tomorrow about my thoughts on the chickens.
