the rooster crows
foraging with his hens
savouring the field
_______________________________________________
ps. that is Snowy at the front (she was one of the original 5 silkies we got as chicks – she was the runt of the litter and now is the only one left of those 5 so she is doing very well); and the rooster is Edgar Allen Poe (on the right) and the hen on the left – Fizz – is a more recent addition (she has a bit of Frizzle in her, so her feathers aren’t as fluffy as a full on Chinese Silkie chicken)

savouring the field is putting it nicely, if he’s anything like ours it’s…well lets just say we named him Barry after Barry White
that’s hilarious 😀 Barry White – bwhahahaha yes, there’s nothing subtle about romance in the chookosphere #ohdear
the others are named Russell Crowe, Kevin McCloud and Wellington and Alf after the character on Home and Away
must be noisy around your place #cockadoodledoo
that’s one way of putting it. and who ever said roosters only crow at dawn, never had roosters
yes, that one is a myth for sure 😀 mine crow at all hours of the day
The group looks quite content with the state of things there. 🙂
They look content in that photo Charles – but we’re never far from a little romantic meltdown around here – jealousy, cold shoulders, anger are just around the corner 😉
Whatever turns you on, I guess!
Nice Chooku. I think chooks are the most useful of tame animals. How many other species turn scraps into first class food and fertilize as they go?
they are very useful Stafford – and their fertilizer is nicely packaged (unlike the sloppy duck poo which gets underfoot way too often)
EAP looks very happy, indeed, to be sandwiched between those to beauties 🙂
he’s a very happy fellow 😀 bluebee
“two”, not “to” 😯
disgraceful – hahahaha – just as well you corrected that abomination in spelling bluebee 😉
