Over at the Robin Siegismund Farm there is never a dull moment. The chickens were squawking then silent then squawking. Belle went to investigate. When Robin got there she could hardly believe what she saw, a fawn in the chicken pen taking a nap. When the fawn started to get up the chicken would squawk. Robin assumed the mother was having lunch in the soybean field across the road. Robin and Belle left the gate open but didn’t know when the fawn left.
