Betty, Eggs and Run-Around-Sue

Joanna and Craig have Vonda and Dave over to pick up Betty, the hen that is laying on four eggs. We are "borrowing" her so that we can watch the eggs hatch and hope that we will have four new little chicks sometime around the second week in July. Betty is a sweet chicken. No wonder Joanna likes her. We had a great salad and bread with Craig and Joanna on their deck and a nice visit.

But the great mis-adventures of the Evans household continue. When we got home, we went to put Betty in the coop and Run-Around-Sue was missing. Zoey (the mama with the two chicks), Petey and Patsy were still there safe and sound. Couldn't figure out what happened. The only thing that we can think of is that something like a raccoon must have climbed the fence and squeezed in at the top. Run-Around-Sue was no where to be seen......Sorry Joanna!
