Escapee!!

I just had to go and recapture one of our pullets! It had flown over our fence into our neighbours yard (they were kind enough to come around and alert me to the fact we had a chook on the loose). So I went round, and chased it around their yard for a couple of minutes (in an attempt to catch it), when it decided to trot down the footpath to the next property along. It was in the next property that I was able to pin it down and carry it home. It's punishment for escaping was that I clipped it's wings (which I will need to do to the other 2 pullets tomorrow morning - they have been growing up nicely and along with this their flight feathers have already grown back again!).
