Chicken Talk

I never would have believed it but my girls love to be sung to! I was out at twilight and sat down to talk with them. A couple seemed upset so I thought singing might calm them down.  Boy, did it. They all came over to me and got very quiet. I sang a couple of lullaby's and quit. Started making noise again so sang some more. About 20 minutes total.  Some of them actually started singing with me. Their voices got a very soft purrr  like sound. It was so cool.  Now I need to sing lullaby's to them. Oh, they also liked movies and Broadway.

Chicken Talk/Jail Break

Chicken Talk/Jail Break

This is offically called Chicken Talk but this episode is all about a jail break and the purpetrater is Ginny.  Ginny is brown with white spots. I am going to buy a white marker and give her stripes.  Somehow,  Ginny has found a way to get out and she does it frequently, like 3 or 4 times a day.  Fortunately she stays in the yard.  The first time, my dog (Jack), was barking furiously and I checked to see.  It was Jail Break Ginny.  She was walking along the fence towards the back yard. Got her and put her back. A couple of hours later, yep, there she goes again.  Last time, I was checking on the girls because a storm was coming and there was Jail Break Ginny roaming around. That was on Monday.  Then we come to Tuesday. JB Ginny started her day off in her usual style....loose.  Tired of trying to convince her to come so I grabbed a hot dog.  Talk about the Pied Piper. Jail Break would have followed me anywhere. She even followed me back into the chicken yard. I checked, found how she was getting out, and fixed it. No more jail breaks for me. Went inside and ate lunch. Later on I went out to get the mail.  Yep, you guessed it...Jail Break Ginny did it again.  Grrrr.....  Checked and could not figure out how she was escaping.   Yesterday evening another storm so I go back out to make one last check. Opened the door and there was Jail Break Ginny! Patiently waiting for the door to open. Picked her up and carried her back to the slammer. Closed the door and threw away the key. I learned domething, never throw away the key. You will need it the next morning. It is currently 11:03 a.m.. Put Jail Break back in at 10:17 a.m..  Not out yet.  Could it be?  Is there a chance?  Only time will tell.   Let you know later. Stripes...gotta get that bird stripes.
