Joshua holding up the returning chook :)
When we went away to camp on 1 January we didn't end up doing that. We ended up at my brother Markus and SIL Sandra's place for the four days. Upon our return home we found that a fox must have gotten into the chooks as about five of our baby roosters where missing but no carcases so we knew it wasn't from Nova on the times that she escaped...
We were also missing one of our purebred Leghorns. Beautiful girls that they are and was rather upset about it. Well this morning as we went to take Timothy to Bluecare for the week, I asked Timothy to throw out some seed for the chooks and low and behold there were two Leghorns and not just one as we had had for the last two weeks...
Sure enough the other one has come home, from where we will never know... All I know is that she will have to shed those feathers as her underbelly is not dirty with mud but some sort of oil that has now set hard...
One lucky chook and one clever chook to find its way back. Sooooo happy this end. :)
Cheers Damaris
