A New Adventure for Carlie

We have been having issues here with the 3 swans.  Dauby and Margaret have become BFF and Dauby decided that Carlie was a third wheel and wanted her gone.  Dad discovered her one morning unable to walk and that's when this fence went up.   
There was no attack but we think that Dauby scared Carlie and she tried to get away and probably twisted her ankle.
 She was as good as new after a couple of day's rest.
 There was a point where Dauby was charging the fence and really just being a witch. Mom and dad both tried to reason with her but it didn't help a bit - not one bit!
 So dad called a man named Dave, who lives in Pennsylvania, and he told us that he has 3 male swans that would love to have a girlfriend. 
So we packed her suitcase.
 Carlie is heading for a brand new adventure in a brand new state and she will have her pick of boyfriends!  It doesn't get much better than that, right!
But look who her traveling companions are - CHICKENS!
There are 5 of them in that crate all clucking away.  Wonder what all the gossip is about?
 Carlie will most probably be a mommy one day and we think that's pretty cool!

Good-by, Carlie!  We feel very honored to have been given the chance to  get to know you and we wish you the very best with your new life!

Love ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch

    Oh what a sweet story (except for Daubie's poor behavior)-thanks for being so kindhearted- we wish Carlie well at her new home. She didn't even have to fly there & made new friends on her journey.

    Good luck Carlie!!! xo

    Three boyfriends! Carlie lucked out there. We were thinking you should have got her a friend, but this is much better.

    Let those males fight it out.

    Too many cooks in the kitchen? or something like that. We all think it is wonderful that Carlie has a wonderful home to go to. Maybe Dauby needs a boy friend;-)
