Runaway Chicken?

Today, I came home to a sad Alex. :( His chicken, Foghorn, cannot be found anywhere. We haven't seen him since yesterday...although the neighbor kid said he saw him this AM (we did not!) SIGH. I can only hope a chicken finds his way home like a dog does, and the good news is that he is not chickenroadkill. Yet.

This is especially sad for Alex because tomorrow is the one year anniversary of his dog's (Oreo) passing.

Both occasions brought Alex to tears. :*(
