Good morning nostr, its coffee on the patio today, enjoying a crisp 62F. I hear the sounds of pigeons and a little rooster. Yes, a rooster, after i swore i would never keep a rooster again. The last batch of chickens we picked up were supposed to be all hens, but we all know how that goes. At least these 2 roosters are small, maybe even banties, so the bigger hens can show them who's boss.
Today i might be able to do some catch up work. I havent decided where to plant my other tree, so i'll keep thinking on it. Anyway, yall have a great Saturday, enjoy your coffee, and remember that today is a gift. #coffeechain #grownostr #homesteading https://nostrcheck.me/media/8d9d2b77930ee54ec3e46faf774ddd041dbb4e4aa35ad47c025884a286dd65fa/304cdba17eef80419c25c9b95b543faf70ca61ae0096abb795c4ff87de8c2368.webp
I've spent the last 4 months listening to the neighbor's rooster welcome the day. He's been my alarm clock. Reminds me of growing up on the farm. There are worse ways to wake up I guess.
Our neighbor has a rooster that needs a new watch, it seems to be morning all day. Doesn't bother me, I'm like you it reminds me of days gone by.
Yes, i like the sound. Its just that the previous roosters have gotten aggressive, and they were pretty large. I think i can live with these small ones.
We had some aggressive roosters too. 45 years later my sister is still terrified of chickens.
When I used to have chickens, I found that picking up and handling the roosters nearly daily helped keep them in line, so they didn't get nasty and attack everyone.
I've heard folks doing that, but i guess i needed to do it when they were pretty young.
I started when they were young. I'm sure it is harder to do for the first time when they are over a year old.
