Where's my hen?

Went to put the girls away the other day, only 2 come running. Shake the corn pot but Speckles still didn't turn up. Then I hear her; go to look behind the polytunnel and there she was in next door's paddock wondering how to get back
Walked around to footpath and across paddock, hoping neighbours weren't in, picked her up and carried her home. She must have hopped up on woodpile, onto the fence and dropped down. Bless.

Is Speckles a speckledy?My little speckledy had us all scratching our head how she got out, then I saw her she launched of the top of coop and flew across 6ft then over a 6ft fence to land the other side i was amazed!

Mine can clear 7 feet no problem!   

Mine too.  From standing on the ground (she doesn't even need a launch pad!) - and she's a LF Salmon Faverolle!  I swear those chickens will do anything for some corn on the cob.

Same here kegs, my Black Rocks can take off like a Harrier Jump Jet.   

I have the one hen who uses the chicken wire as a ladder, and literally climbs up and over, I have now given up trying to keep her in 

You need to video that and put it on youtube, would be worth a fortune.
