Make sure your cock/rooster goes to bed too. Night Harry

And make sure he's standing proud in the morning to wake you up.................in the chicken run.

I can be even more trivial ::) It's actually a cock if it's mature. A cockerel is a young un. I don't think people like saying cock ;D

Unless you keep gamefowl...then it's a 'stag' (steg in Ireland) for a young bird, and an older bird is a cock.

My favourite saying is...'early to bed and up with the cock'. :D

How my cock has grown over the last few months  :o

Joking aside, George (the cock(erel?)) is truely amazing! He fought off a fox saving my lovely girls from a terrible plight!!!!  George had blood all round his beek! I was worried until I realised it wasn't his! Must have been foxy's!!!!

He is also a proud father. Next door neighbour (Bobby) had a broody so I gave her some lovely eggs (George is a busy boy!!). The lovely new addition (to her flock) is a lovely ginger chick (ex-batt and George!!!). AMAZING!!!!!!  ;D

Does that make me a Granny?!?!?
