Yep, here too.
I've had to clip the wing feathers of one of the pullets. Several days
I found her out when there were no doors open. After a grid-search for
a trapdoor and tunnel I came to the conclusion that she had flown over
the netting of the outdoor run. Possibly an exuberant take-off from the
ramp leading up to the door mentioned above.
She's a cutie, laying green eggs while looking more Blue Holland in
colour & pattern and shape. A slight hint of top-knot and a comb that
is neither one thing nor t'other, perhaps most closely resembling a
strig of red currants with one big round berry and a few little ones
bunched close together.
