Chicken Run (The Great Escape)

My first full weekend here and now a week since I escaped my death sentence. I can't help feeling sorry for all those girls that went to the big stockpot in the sky.

I'm no longer limping and I'm starting to get the hang of things. I'm eating on a more regular basis, rather than just when I'm placed in front of the food.

I won't come down in the morning, unless I'm forced because, to be honest Abigail still frightens me to death, so I get taken into the house.

In the afternoons Abigail gets let out into the garden and I get put in the hen nouse on my own. On Saturday I thought I would have a go at going up the ramp. It was easy, so I came down and went back up again. TBM was very impressed with that. Then she let Abigail in so I went up and stayed up.

Today, when TBM let Abigail back in to the run, SHE went straight up to bed without pecking me. So i carried on with my supper and went up when I felt like it.

Still no eggs.

Here's a picture of me on Sunday, I must say I think I'm looking a lot perkier.

Or do you prefer my seductive look?

  Isabella, I think you are looking very proud and it is so good to see you standing up straight.  Your tail feathers are especially pretty.  I think by the end of spring you will be absolutely gorgeous.  You mustn't give up hope that Abigail will be your friend.  She's been top and only hen now for several months and now she has to share everything now.  She's not a young bird either.  You know how cranky old clucks can be.  So just tolerate the old girl's pecks and give her a few back once in a while.  You might surprise her into leaving you alone!
  
  Love,
  Auntie Susie
