My neighbor kids just got a couple of chickens today. One of the hens escaped--so...we need to get the chicken before it crosses the road.

*We have no chicken feed for them.

Okay...this thread just made me laugh. Have no idea how to catch a chicken but at least you got a chuckle out of me.

Update: I think the kids got the hen. It was under our porch for a little while before running to another neighbor's porch.


:) Some of my neighbors have interesting pets.

When I saw the heading, I thought it was going to be a knock-knock joke or something.

Perhaps crowing like a rooster would get the "lady's" attention.... sorry ... but this is sooooooo funny to me :lmao:

Run after it and grab it.
OR get a net with a long handle
But if you need chicken for dinner a gun works

This post made me laugh. A lot!

I hope the kids caught the escapee.

Just keep in mind that chickens are dumb animals.

Really dumb.

As in "if a rock had feet it would be a chicken" dumb. For the most part, they just need to be protected from themselves.

Good luck to you and the kids

just in case it happens again. Crumple bread into crumbs. Fruits or veggies they love it all. Actually as dumb as people think they are mine are smart enough to have never gone into the road. They run free all around the yard. When I go outside to feed them I call "here chickie chickie" and they all come running. Dumb I know but it works.
