Coop Visitor

The girls had a visitor today. See him down there in the wood shavings?

Gary came home to find all four chickens huddled in a corner.
They knew something wasn't right, and figured it was best to stay away from the uninvited slithery guest.

Just a garter snake, and only about a foot long, but menacing nonetheless. Gary helped the snake remember it had a prior engagement, and sent him packing. Hopefully the snake won't be back, but we'll be keeping an eye out for him.
