Chicken Saga

Message to Mr. Burch yesterday. Since then I went and chicken-napped 4 more chickens from Page's house for Senor (Friesan). Apparently, they are terrorized.

Well I think you are face deep in lobster and blueberries, but I still wanted to share the Burchie experience with you…

Two days ago my sister asked me to deliver a rooster named “Señor" to Michael to make into a meal. Turned out to be a lovely guy… handsome and sweet … so I couldn’t hand him over to the fork. Instead I decided to drop him on my future home/land and hope that he would hack it.

The very next morning I got a call from my friend/neighbor/future-mother-in-love that her dog had gotten out of her fence to chase and chomp Señor. There were feathers everywhere… at least two locations were war (and murder) took place. We never found his body and held on to some hope that he made it, but there was obviously a violent attack. So sad.

The very NEXT day, we got word from Dee that the rooster was back and he was okay! We couldn’t let this happen again so we decided to take him back and put him in with Burchie and his crew. So a midnight chicken run went down… we snuck Señor in Burchie’s house and hoped for the best.

The next day, Señor was doing great…so happy, he had so many ladies, a nice house and he had humbled sweet Burchie… roughed him up just enough to get him to hide all day. It was happy for Señor but oh so sad for our Burchie. (And all of us who love him.)

We decided that couldn’t happen so I was going to let Michael make soup but then Dee and Jim (the neighbors/future-in-loves) decided they wanted to adopt Señor, so last night another midnight chicken run took place and now Señor has his own place (unfortunately without any ladies), and Burchie is back on the top of the heap with his house and ladies!! 

COCKADOODLEDOOOOOOO!!!!

Hope you are having a great time on this National Canoe Day! ;)
