It was night time and unannounced to the humans, we (3 hens) were out in the woods playing an evening game of duck - duck - goose. The big guy locked up the coop, assuming we were inside.
"Duck...duck... huh, what was that?" said Helga.
"It sounded like the lock." worried Hazel.
"3 girls out tonight! What should we do? Tear up this town?" said Harriet.
"You better start praying that coons don't tear us up tonight!" yelled Helga.
"Let's finish the game and then go find some fun!" said Harriet.
"Game? Fun? Are you coo coo? We need to find shelter and find it now." declared Hazel.
"Party pooper" said Harriet.
The girls walked in a nervous line. The wind whistled and they darted into full sprint. Exhausted, they hid beneath a fallen tree and fell asleep. Hours later the sun began to rise.
"That was horrible. I dreamed of horrible things. From now on it's in the coop by sunset for me gals." said Hazel.
"MOVE IT!!! Is the door open? Did anyone check? My egg is coming and it's coming NOW!" said Helga.
"Quit your squawking and find a tree Helga! I slept great! A little excitement does a chicken good." said Harriet.
