Why it's time for the chickens to go to the barn.

They live in boxes, the sides are two feet high and the chicks can now easily hop up on to the edge.

This morning I fed the chicks in the left box first. A chick leapt out of the right box and landed in the left joining the scramble at the feeder.

These, by the way, are the reasons that people in the country in Canada don't lock their houses; guns and dogs.''most everyone has guns and dogs.

The potential burglar doesn't know that all that noise is coming from a demi-poodle.
