Mini-K Ranch Hens Released On Probation

Mini-K Underwood

Monday 13 hens were released at Mini-K after a short confinement for laying with intent to hide with time served.  The hens were said to of been hiding eggs behind 6 bails of hay and around the garage area.  A short time before the door to the cell confining them was opened church bells could be heard in the distance. 

The controversy started with an altercation last week after a visitor to the ranch was attacked.  The farmer looking guy in overalls was quoted as saying "I'm sure they'll be running around like chickens with their heads not chopped off".  Normally the hens are allowed to roam the ranch free and clear with the roosters but that changed when they started hiding the eggs. 

The confinement was ordered by ranch officials in order to reset the hens internal GPS component which programs the egg laying location.  A second confinement may be ordered again if the hens don't cooperate.  If that happens "the roosters will be out running around without the girls" the farmer looking guy in overalls added. 

Mini-K ranch, founded in 2005 specializes in egg harvesting and transportation and is not found on the national stock exchange under MINK.
