   You know, you are right, except that the applet does not allow that.

Many thanks. I should probably start thinking about upgrading the applet.

Oops, no. This does not seem right. After one of the humans catches one of the chicken, he or she must hold to the caught bird to prevent her escaping. Thus only one of the fellows is available to chase another bird. So that it is impossible to box them sequentially.
