rugby scrum in the chicken run

Alot of pushing and shoving in the chicken run earlier today, i went out to see what all the commotion was about, and to my surprise there was a not so slow, slowworm being stretched about 2 foot, it soon got pecked and divided up and was swallowed up very quickly, we now have a very quite, peaceful chicken run, until the next victim decides to enter the lions den,  ( it is ok for the chickens to have the odd slow worm isnt it?)

Slow worms are fab, We used to go looking for them as kids. i take it you live down south somewhere?

Poor slow worm!

We don't have anything that exotic up here!  Nothing more stretchy than slugs really.
