Went to a big farm sale on Saturday, plenty of lots. Rained overnight, and then heavens opened at lunchtime, so you can imagine the field and car park field were bad. It was fun getting back onto the road.
There were ducks, turkeys and bantams, sold with their huts. Looked carefully, and picked a hut of 5 - one looked like it may turn into a cockerel, but other 4 hens. Auctioneer said there were 5, so off we went. Knocked down to me. Loaded the hut into the pick up, came home. Sited hut, put feed and water in, checked they had all survived the journey .....and thats when I saw IT!! Sitting looking at me was a funny looking small black cockerel, with a large comb, distinctive white ears very dumpy looking and no tail ....although its tail may have come out. What is it??
Definitely was not in the hut when I looked (and I checked twice at separate times before the bantams were sold). So, someone had put the cockerel out of a hut they were bidding at, or added that one to the hut, thinking they were getting it. Whatever, I now have this little strange looking bird!!
