I am so angry my rooster will not and I mean not go into the coop tonight. Usually when I mp in. But not tonight i actually went inside and back out and he was in the coop as I usually do I snuck up then ran to close but not now. As I ran he jumped out. I went in and told my mom then she said, "Blog about it then try again" that is what I am doing now. oh. How I could smash his head if I had half a brain.

My goodness! You want to smash his head? Remain calm. I thought you were going to get rid of the rooster?
ReplyDeleteThe Bad Birds taste good!
ReplyDeleteNasty roosters have long been a part of keeping chickens. Lots of people remember that evil bird from when they were a kid, how he'd wait for you to take your eyes off him for just a minute, then pounce on you. It's a big reason why a lot of people who would like to keep chickens decide against it later on in life. It's a big part of the reason some people just keep hens. That's a shame. When you don't have a rooster around your hens, you miss a huge part of the joy that comes from raising chickens.
A Fighting Gamecock is bred to fight and kill other chickens. Unlike the common image of chickens, these birds are not timid, cowardly, or faint-hearted...just ask any handler who has ever been attacked by one of these ferocious birds. Cock fighting is the world's oldest spectator sport, originating it is believed in Persia (now Iran) some 6,000 years ago.
ReplyDeleteThe night before a big battle, Alexander the Great would stage cock fights to impress upon his soldiers traits of courage and valor. Cock fighting was the national sport of England until 1850 when it was outlawed. Famous Americans including George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Andrew Jackson raised and fought game cocks.
Where is the rooster?
ReplyDeleteIn - out, captive or free.
Will he be a soupster,
or free in a tree?
Abby, Just tell him you will take away his car keys if he does not get in his coop when he is supposed to, That should do it! Grandma has spoken.
ReplyDeleteYankee Doodle went to town,
ReplyDeleteRiding on a pony;
He stuck a feather in his hat,
And called it macaroni.
Yankee Doodle went to town,
riding on a rooster.
His saddle wasn’t high enough,
so now he’s got a booster.
Yankee Doodle went to town
riding on a turkey.
He stopped at the store
and bought a pound of jerky.

ReplyDelete"It's been awhile," the cowboy said.
"Yep," replied his friend.
"It must be nearly fifteen years."
"Yep," he said again.
"I guess you been a driftin' some?"
"Yep," his friend replied.
"I guess I've done about the same."
"Yep," the old friend sighed.
"Remember Shorty Winkleman?"
"Yep," friend answered slow.
"I hear he up and passed away."
"Yep," he answered low.
"Sure looks like we may have some rain."
"Yep," his friend allow'd.
"Lord knows that we can stand relief."
"Yep," the other scowled.
"I guess you need to head on out?"
"yep," his friend intoned.
"I sure am glad we got to chat."
"Yep," the old hand droned.
The cowboy, after supper, said
he'd run into Ray.
The other boys now gathered 'round.
"What'd he have to say?"
"He said that it had been awhile,
nearly fifteen years.
he said that he had drifted some
workin' with them steers."
"He said he knowed 'bout Shorty's death,
that it made him sad.
He figured we was in fer rain,
fer relief was glad."
"He said he was a headin' out,
glad we got to jaw.
Ol' Ray is quite a talker, boys.
Beats all I ever saw."

ReplyDeleteA middle eastern king was down on his money and began to sell off his valuables. The last of these was the Star of the Euphrates, at that time the most valuable diamond in existence. He went to a pawnbroker who offered him 100,000 rials for it. "Are you crazy?", said the king. "I paid one million rials for this gem! Don't you know who I am?"
The pawnbroker replied, "When you wish to pawn a star, makes no difference who you are."

Larry went to visit his 86 year old grandfather in a very rural area. After spending a great evening chatting the night away, Larry's grandfather prepared breakfast of bacon and eggs. Larry noticed a film like substance on his plate, and questioned his grandfather asking, 'Are these plates clean?'
ReplyDeleteHis grandfather replied, 'They're as clean as cold water can get em. Just you go ahead and finish your meal'.
For lunch the old man made hamburgers. Again, Larry was concerned about the plates as it appeared to have tiny specks around the edge that looked like dried egg and asked, 'Are you sure these plates are clean?'
Without looking up the old man said, 'I told you before, those dishes are as clean as cold water can get them. Now don't you worry, I don't want to hear another word about it'.
Later that afternoon, as he was leaving, his grandfather's dog started to growl, and wouldn't let him pass. Larry yelled and said, 'Grandfather, your dog won't let me get to my car'.
Without diverting his attention from the football game he was watching on TV, the old man shouted, 'COLDWATER, GO LAY DOWN NOW, YAH HERE ME!!!
