How to Train Your Chicken

Step 1: Let your illegal chickens free range in your backyard.
Step 2: Freak out when you think one of them has run away, because you know that if your creepy neighbor sees them he will most certainly turn you in to the POA.
Step 3: Watch as your children pray for the safe return of lost chicken for 3 days
Step 4: Find chicken trapped behind a piece of plywood less than 30 feet from the coop.
Step 5: Happily gather blue eggs from beneath trapped chicken, then set her loose.
Step 6: Smile when your children squeal with delight that their prayers for Eleanor were answered.
Step 7: Wave a bottle of BBQ sauce at the chicken, when the children aren't looking, so she knows not to pull that little stunt again unless she wants her name to change to "dinner" or "kabob".
Step 8: Stop letting the kids watch Chicken Run, and instead give them Fantastic Mr. Fox, so they can grasp just how lucky they are that Eleanor did not get eaten over the weekend.
