Chickens, Squirrels & Seed

This is a scene that plays every morning at our house :)

We recently had a near catastrophe . We neglected to close the coop in the evening and the results were almost disastrous. I was working on my computer when I heard a ruckus from the vicinity of the coop. I raced outback to see my brother in a violent struggle with a couple opossums. In the melee Itty Bitty just had one of her eyes badly damaged and we were not sure if she would make it. Now a month later she is back to her old self with the only evidence of her ordeal being the loss of vision in the injured eye. It was a real emotional rollercoaster:)
