Mr.Roo

cock-a-doodle-doo!

August days.. tired of watering, chickens grazing, honeysuckle setting red berries for Fall, some flowers still going, everything so dry.
Mr.Roo had a crisis the other day! He somehow managed to get some string wrapped around one of his legs, and then when trying to jump off of a roost over the compost bin, caught the sting on a burr and was hanging upside down by one leg! DH just happened to come by and rescued him, bringing him in  for me to cut off the string. Mr.Roo was very calm in DH arms and looked over the living room, wondering if we had anything good for his hens to eat in here! He is a good boy for the most part always looking after the girls and getting them morsels to eat. Of course, after we saw him swinging upside down, we wondered if the old hens had strung him up there! Not all the girls have taken kindly to the roosters!

Spring has sprung! In the 80's today, then tonight the thunderstorm came up and dropped the temp 20 degrees. The roosters  are busy showing the Hens whats what, tho sometimes the hens turn on them and chase them awhile. Our white Roo clucks and gathers his hens, to show them something good to eat, and when it is time to go in at night. All in all very entertaining!
