The Great Chicken Escape is a true story, or as close to truth as I could ascertain from the chickens themselves. One day, the chickens snuck out the back door of the coop. Some of the more timid were caught, but a rogue group of the highest in the pecking order successfully eluded the nuns.The nuns decided that there was no real danger, only the possibility of a great chicken adventure. They let the chickens roam, enjoying the freedom of the forest. There was no worry, for the chickens would return home to roost; after all, they are chickens.
