Cassie doesn't usually collect the eggs by herself, but today, she thought she'd give it a try. I was busy in the kitchen and didn't think much of her going out in the backyard. When I peeked out the window she was running to the house with her hands folded to her neck. As she got closer I realized she had her arms filled with eggs. She was so excited that there were 5 eggs, that she left the coop open and the girls ran for freedom.
I had just finished making my Broccoli Cheddar Soup and my Chicken Pot Pie had a few more minutes in the oven (more on those in another post...MMMM). I grabbed my scrap bowl and headed out to gather the girls. When I have the scrap bowl in hand, they come running!
So, I corralled them into the coop and gave them their scraps and headed back to the house. Only to realize I didn't close the side door on the coop that Cassie left open. Yup...they got their treat and ran for freedom...AGAIN!
"Hey, you got anymore of those scraps?"
Just came across your blog. Very lovely! Got a chuckle from your chicken story! Have a blessed day! ~Tammy
