I’ve never owned rabbits, but I can tell you that hens do have a surprisingly strong moral compass. Think they could teach our fearless leader a thing or two about how to put an end to the fighting?
I could have used these chickens when the kids were a bit younger!! come to think of it, I know a men’s over 30′s soccer team or two that could use chickens like these!! Brilliant!
wow. And I have always been told chickens were really, really stupid. Those two acted like the police of the yard, and knew exactly how to stop the rabbit squabble. WOW!

Garden Rant is one of the best of a crop of garden blogs… in a class by itself.
That is too funny! An initial show of strength with a few claws and then….the stare down! Usually works but you do need those claws!
That’s hilarious! As if they said, “Smarten up!” and then walked away. Great find!
