There's Always One | Chickens in the Road

See Annabelle? On the other side of the fence? With all the other sheep. Where she’s supposed to be. See one of the Miss Cotswolds? On this side of the fence, in the buck field with Eclipse and Rhett?

How did she get there? Why did she go? What does she want?

We don’t know. It’s a mystery.

However, it’s a good bet that she looked at the sheep, and looked at the goats, and said to herself, “Self, those two little goats put together don’t eat half of what one of these sheep eat. I’m going to live with them!”

Or maybe Mr. Cotswold was getting on her nerves. Maybe he left the toilet seat up. Maybe he wouldn’t let her watch Oprah. Maybe he called her fat.

I’ll investigate and get back to you.

Sometimes you’ll just never learn what could be in a “Mrs.”‘s mind

Mr C probably wanted Mrs C to clean the place up and she was tired and figured the goats were less trouble. lol. Funny. Wish I knew what was in her mind too.

Well, it was her way of telling Mr. C not tonight dear. She couldn’t use “I have a headache” because she used that excuse LAST night.

Maybe she wants to walk on the wild side.

Not that THAT side is the wild side, from the looks of it…

There is also the possibility that she’s decided on an interspecies relationship. Goats and sheep can have offspring… Geeps.. or Shoats. Can’t recall the name at the moment.

Now that’d be shock in spring.
