😂 I'm having an odd run of evening walks.
Tonight a friend of a friend came by on bike, slowed to greet me, & eagerly said I'd seen his cock today.
His... cock? (Gallo in Spanish, but it's hard for English speakers to forget our roots. 😉)
Turns out he was being 100% sincere. Excitedly he took out his phone to show me the photo of his pet rooster that our friend had shared with me this morning. Apparently it was big enough news that my friend had told *him* we'd been talking about his cock. 🙃
@MLClark That conversation would definitely raise an eyebrow...lol
@MLClark A neighbor had a henhouse for a while, was hoping for the fresh egg thing. It worked for him for a while, but between red-tailed hawks and foxes, the hens all got eaten up.
@GlennS Eesh. No eggs - just stories to tell! Poor little chickens, but lucky hawks and foxes!
@MLClark I want to go on an evening walk with you. Your walks are far more interesting than mine.
@elbutterfield Annnnnnnnytime! 🤗
(Lots of folks raise chickens, and other animals, close by. I am routinely regaled with funny stories as well as ongoing fights involving rats in the chicken coops. In all seriousness, good on him for being so proud of his rooster; I know these animals are treated well.)
