One Flew Over the Fence
Today my neighbor came over to inform me that my white rooster had flown the coop and was wandering around across the street in another neighbor's yard.
Sure enough, the hens weren't with him so that was a 'good thing'. I chased him back home and the hens were in the driveway patiently awaiting his return.
I had a couple of hens disappear a couple of weeks ago. and I think my new neighbors next door had them for dinner. I think the black Astrolorp rooster that Whitey was harassing also, he was here one day and gone the next.
When I was informed of my wayward rooster's antics I was afraid he would be headed for the stew pot too so I gave the people a dozen eggs in appreciation for not eating him.
Chickens is fun but you got to clip their wings real short.
