A little surprise

Imagine Alana's surprise when she went to let the chicken's out of their coop this morning and, instead, found Fraulein(our 6 mo. old CALF) jumping out the chicken coop door. Our chicken coop is anything but big and she must have had very little room to turn around and lay down all night considering that she was sharing her chosen space with 26 chickens.

 Yes, it would seem that, in the pitch dark last night, I closed the door on the chickens AND the calf. Jonah told me I should have brought a flash light to look and make sure all was right but shutting the door on a CALF was the last thing I thought would happen. It IS a chicken coop, not a calf hutch.Turns out that because we put fresh straw in the nesting boxes she decided that it was good to eat and ate it all up and was probably the reason she was in their in the first place.

 Next time it's my turn to trek out in the dark to close the coop door I will probably be taking a flash light with me.
