Long live the King - the neverending story of Brahmalot!

post #1 of 961
Thread Starter 

Once upon a time there lived a king named Rocky.  He reigned with a gentle hand over his harem and watched them diligently, keeping them as safe as he could.

Subjects came from other lands to be ruled by Rocky as his reputation for being a good and gentle king grew.  All was good in the land.

King Rocky fathered many children and had many foster children, some of which stayed in the kingdom but others traveled far away to other kingdoms and were never seen again.

Soon, a young prince, Samson, grew tall and strong.  His foster-dad, King Rocky, taught him the manly crow that would strike fear in his enemies and make the ladies swoon.

King Rocky eventually stepped down, giving the throne to young Prince Samson.  Now Rocky lives happily in retirement under the trees, sun bathing and eating with his personal harem.  Sam has taken over the main flock and is working diligently to keep them safe and happy.

So far they are all living happily every after, but a new prince has come to the kingdom - look out Sam!

The end, or is it!

The cutest story! thumbsup.gif love.gif My first rooster was black and white and named Rocky too (his nickname was 'Rootal' tongue.png ), though he had pink legs, a single comb and a longer tail, and no feathers on his feet. Your boy is quite beautiful too, and nicer sounding than mine. It took several years for my Rocky to mellow out a bit. Very aggressive to us but good to his hens.

Whoever said don't count your chickens before they're hatched clearly never tried to count chickens after they're hatched.

The kingdom continues to flourish under good King Samson

Festival day arrives and the kingdom celebrates the harvest of their main crop - watermelon!

Even Her Majesty, Queen Frack enjoys a bite with the court jester, Romeo, at her side.

Visitors come from far lands to sample the watermelons which have no equal.

Even the schools are closed so the little princes and princesses can enjoy the glorious day!

The older children help tidy up the guest quarters under the watchful eye of Nanny Heidi.

In the nursery, all is quiet.  All are dreaming of hatching day, a day of great celebration and welcome.

The well feathered members of this kingdom have much to celebrate.  

 

Rocky seems to be enjoying his retirement - there is nothing better than sandbathing - except maybe watermelon.
