You might ask me why I did it. I have a rule that if a rooster turns mean, it becomes dinner. Of course, I hesitated a bit, but Pokey (that was his name, Pokey) was so mean lately that the Sultan started sleeping outdoors. Pokey wasn't letting him into the chicken coop.
This is the Sultan:

He also makes a fairly decent art model, actually. All is not lost.
I went out to feed the chickens this evening, and things were much more peaceful without Pokey the Rooster.
In case you were wondering, the Wiz Bang Plucker worked great.
I guess the pecking order stops at the Chef, right? :o)
ReplyDeleteHow come the Sultan's not named Gumby?
You know, I never thought of that. Really, the third rooster (second, now) should be Gumby, because they were Spring Chickens together. But his name is Rosie. Go figure.
