My favorite rooster just got hit by a car. This makes about the third chicken in a couple years I've lost this way and the second rooster.

Sucks. My one rooster is mean as hell. I liked this other one. He was my pet and would jump in my lap.

Oh well.
Maybe build a chicken tractor or fence the yard and cut their primary flight feathers? I'm sorry, chickens can be so personable.

whats for dinner tonight?
I can't eat this one. I said it just happened. I guess it happened last night and I just found him. I didn't notice when I locked the coop.

They have a pen and coop. I let them run loose.

Its not a big problem. Three in about as many years.

I can't clip their wings. We let them loose and they use them to get away from predators.

Funny thing is I saw a hawk about a month ago swoop in and try to grab a chicken.

They ganged up on the hawk.

You still have the best cock threads...

if that's any consolation.

As we were discussing various kinds of vittles and the changes in the American diet, a friend’s wife(Mary) told the story where as a kid they would visit an Uncle’s farm. The Uncle kept a number of animals including rabbits. Mary loved the rabbits. One weekend she showed up and most the rabbits were gone and her questions, she remembered, were left wanting. Come dinner time when she sat down at the table she figured out that the “chicken” they were about to eat was not in its normal shape and she called them on it and refused to eat it. Her father scolded her about her disrespecting the work etc. etc. their hosts put into the meal while explaining some hard facts...ending with telling her that she WILL eat some of whats on the table. Through her tears she looked up and said “Fine!! fine... I’ll have a wing”

Uncle and father laughed so hard they let her off the hook.
