Guess I should get used to it.....<br /><br />Mary, I know, ick, and naturally my husband is conveniently 'out of town' whenever something dies around here.<br /><br />Thanks Katherine, I have read that too, that a hen will step up and take charge. I have been trying to figure who it is, but no luck yet;)<br /><br />Thanks Richard, glad you enjoyed it and I guess you understand about dead chickens;)<br /><br />Thanks Shanster, Larry?? Hehe, love that name. Yeah, sure do enjoy their antics and miss them when they are gone.<br /><br />Thanks Anonymous, perfect lyrics and so true too. Love Willie Dixon!<br /><br />Kristin, is that good that I can babble on and on about our rooster dropping dead? Wait until you read my post about getting the mail from the mailbox:) (just kidding, definitely nothing exciting about that except for the crazy infestation of earwigs in the mailbox every summer) There, see what I did???Tracy Helgesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07510044613771862211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22266501.post-51479050303012889842009-11-03T21:19:35.096-05:002009-11-03T21:19:35.096-05:00I love how you can make such a long post about a r...I love how you can make such a long post about a rooster.
