Chicken Tree

We keep our chickens in a portable electric fence so that they can be moved around the property to get access to fresh forage.  Manflesh moved them up the hill the other day, but they've decided they like it better at the bottom of the hill, so they keep busting out.

After taking the picture, he dragged the ladder out there in the dark and lovingly took each one down and put them to bed on their proper roost.
