Crazy critters

Our critters are crazy. It is as simple as that. I even have some pictures to prove it. The other day I was in the chicken coop when the goats rubbed against the door and shut it. Elsa the chicken was sitting on top of the nesting boxes at the time and I didn't like the way she was looking at me. As I was trying to push my way back out of the coop (not easy to do when two goats are leaning up against the door!), I heard some loud flapping. And then I felt a large bird on my back! She scrambled up to my shoulder and seemed quite content to stay there. I finally managed to escape the coop, bird still attached to my shoulder. That is when the goats noticed that I was wearing a chicken and decided to try and pluck her tail feathers. I'm sure the scene would have been amusing if anyone had witnessed it-me with a chicken on my shoulder and two goats on either side of me with their hooves up on my hips.
