Hens on the run

The hens love this warm weather. They are all over...in the front yard, in the back yard, in the pine trees, in my in-laws yard, down the drive way, in the garden, and around the barn. Hens, hens, hens, everywhere you look. Their favorite thing to do is to find a spot of dirt (like a flower bed) where they can scratch and roll. They use their wings to throw dirt up onto their backs. They remind me of Pig Pen from Charlie Brown. We bought some poultry netting to put up around their coop to keep them somewhat contained. You can imagine all the presents 100+ hens leave behind. Not good.
