they discovered the other side

mimi hopped over our five maybe six foot fence this afternoon. i heard daddy (the rooster) cackling and squawking away loudly. at first i thought maybe she was laying an egg but when i went to look in the coop she wasn't there. i could hear her little chicken feet fussing with some leaves on the other side of the fence and there she was in our drive way! unfortunately, when one does something the other girls follow suit. yep, our girls are one of the best examples of the saying "monkey see, monkey do". kevin was not pleased and worried when i told him what happened. after some discussion we agreed that we had to clip their feathers. all of them. now they are just little hoppers. after clipping their feathers i couldn't help but wonder how in the world had mimi cleared that fence! we will never know....
