After several attempts I messaged Kristi but she was downtown at an appointment. She said I couldn't lock myself in and that it must just be stuck, but try as I might, I couldn't get the door to open. So I called Steve, who was about to go for lunch, to come to my rescue (his poor co-worker got to hear the full extent of the rooster calls while we were on the phone).
While I was waiting for Steve to arrive, I spent my time fending off this one little rooster. The smallest one of course, a bad case of Little Man Syndrome, kept coming at me trying cock fight. Thankfully I had the empty grain bag for protection; no joke, he may have been little but his spurs are huge! I took a photo of him and told Kristi he is the first one that needs to go, not that I have any say in that but I told him too :) Rocky even tried to come to rescue me but he too was unsuccessful.
Finally, after about half hour or so of being in the pen, Steve arrived and freed me. I had him take a photo of the door before he opened it and sure enough, I managed to lock the door just by closing it.
They say it's Blue Monday today but I got one heck of a laugh! Only I could lock myself in a turkey/rooster pen, when nobody was on the property, and spend my time inside fending off a rooster with an empty grain bag!

Double, triple, quadruple checking...yep, it's locked. |
Locked in on the barn side. |

Little Man Syndrome! |
He's here! Rocky showing Steve the way to the prisoner. |
Yep, I actually managed to lock this by just closing the door from the inside. Now that's talent! |
