Feathered Friend

The other day we came home and found a chicken hanging out in our yard!
Theres a chicken in our yard!

As we've never seen a chicken just wandering around on its own (such city folk! :), we were completely lost as to what to do. Were we even supposed to do anything, or just ignore it? Not knowing proper chicken visitor etiquette, I sent the following email to our landlord (yes, seriously):
Random question for you... We just came home & there's a chicken in the yard. New situation for us :), so just curious what a Bend resident would do? Maybe it will find it's way home, but we weren't sure if we were supposed to do anything to help it along...
Thanks!
She emailed back that she was in the neighborhood and would be right over. Turns out that she wasn't really sure what to do either, but just wanted to see it. Eventually the little guy moved on... a neighbor a couple houses down seems to let his feathered friends wander around, so we're assuming that's where he lives? Still, an interesting little adventure for the afternoon!
