Psychotic Chicken Cured!



You may remember we were having bad times in chicken land at the end of the year.

All are living in harmony again. Last week I almost posted a Craigs List notice on the brown hen, Honey, because she was fighting the one eyed white chicken Pirate, to the tune of "There Will Be Blood." But a few days of isolation in a dog crate and she forgot whatever was p@ssing her off-- now all is harmony,

with the big white boy in charge!


He was standing on the top step looking in the window this afternoon. He's a gorgeous white boy.

He's a beauty!
His name...?

That's Elle the Rooster. He's looking especially gorgeous these days, and he's six years old, which is old for a chicken.

This reminds me of the beautiful Extraordinary Chickens wall calendars. Here's a URL for 2007 (the url for 2008 was too long to paste here):

Thanks, I think I have the book that the calendar series is based on.

Sally, this reminds me. I've been meaning to ask how Elle reacted when you got back from CO/AZ and he was let out of the garage. Was it a re-enactment of A Rooster Named Elle (the movie)?

Yeah, Linda, he made a mighty dash for his girls, but he'd had a few sleepovers while we were away.
