“Good Morning, Girls”, Mom said. “Ready to outside and have some fun?”
“Hush your worry, Skitter Bug” Fluffy clucked as they headed out of the hen house.
“If you keep thinking of things that are going to get you, you will never get to see the world.”
“Look Skitter Mom has scattered Yummy treats right here!”
“WOW! Even bugs! Fluffy!! BUGS!”
“OH! MY GOSH! RUN, FLUFFY RUN!”
“No, Skitter, come this way…more bugs, more places to scratch”
“I’ll stand watch, you’ll be safe.”
“This is different, sorta hard, butttttt YUM a cricket!!”
“This wind is something else—ruffled butt feathers!”
“Just turn sideways…your feathers will stay down, Skitter.”
“OHHHHHHHHHHH, this is heaven. SKITTER leave the hen house and come play!”

Ain’t that the truth… my ex is always angry and talking about how horrible everything is. He has missed out on so much in his 70 years of life. hmmm – how long is 70 human years in chicken years?
