Then, he slowly helped them. The kids made the mistakes of learning一a board cut too short and hands cut by knives一but in the end, Andrew did some tricks and the coop looked perfect.The chickens love their perfectly imperfect home and we like to let them run around the yard freely. Yesterday, we needed to go to the city center, knowing that the chickens wont go very far. When we got back, my son, Gordon, ran to check on them. There were Peanut, Cookie and Potato, looking a mess. Ice-cream was nowhere to be seen.We searched around the yard and found lots of feathers（羽毛）. By this time, Gordons eyes got watery. Ice-cream was his favorite chicken.Andrew picked Gordon up and held him in his arms. As we stood there, accepting that we were now a three-chicken family, we heard it一a soft clucking sound. Andrew put Gordon down and they looked under the bush. There was Ice-cream, a half-naked(半裸的）chicken. She looked strange, but she was totally fine. Andrew carefully picked her up and returned her to the coop.The next day, Andrew had a meeting with the kids. The kids believed that the chickens should stay in the coop, safe from everything that may hurt them. Andrew disagreed.
