May 31, 2008 - First of all, I would just like to say that I totally called this one. But I woke up this morning to the very distinct, absolutely unmistakable sound of a rooster crowing. My first thought was - "who else has chickens?" But as I peered outside the window looking out onto OUR chickens, a strange pride came over me - it was OUR chicken, yes, the white one that actually ACTS like a boy - turns out he IS a boy! How cool! Of course I immediately woke Joe so that he too could appreciate the man that our little baby chicken has become. Except his response was - "oh no." Perhaps it's about time to move these girls and guy over to the new property now? After all, our neighbors may not be like us and appreciate the free alarm clock that is the sound of a rooster at 6:30 in the morning. Or if he becomes really ornery as he matures, we weren't kidding about eating him. We've always said that if we had any nasty roosters, they'd go straight into the oven. Only time will tell his fate...
And all this before 7 am. Should be an interesting day!
