My new toy
Hey, it's all good. If kicking him works for you, then keep kicking him. Not kicking seems to work for me, for now. That's not to say I haven't. Twice I did and he came at me harder. When I don't, he's suddenly a quitter so I just shut it down by not giving him the opportunity to make me engage on his terms. I'm sure that may change in the future. It was a sound philosphy during my single lady days, and a rooster is just another dude, really. I know that roosters are hardwired to fight, but I have to say, if I was hardwired to fight and always win & somebody kicked me, I'd just want to tear their face off or go completely psycho hose-beast on them.
We'll see what happens when James hits puberty. Perhaps he'll be the one needing to be kicked or re-homed. I only say don't because that's what I read about in the blogs/forums/articles I was researching in. I meant it more as a suggestion, not so much as a command. If it were any other roo, I probably wouldn't waste my time with it, but you know this little guy slept under my chin for a week when he was a sick baby. I just don't have the heart, whether he deserves it or not so I decided to find a way to make it work so he can stay. Time will tell.
"To each, his own" is the lesson here. I just wish I could remember which articles and blogs I read because I didn't bookmark them. I think one was in Mother Earth News or Grit, maybe(?). They discussed all angles, including re-homing and freezer camp, so I just chose what works for me and discarded the rest. Please know, I am definitely not trying to be a know-it-all here. I know how much you hate that!
On another note, did you ever find out what those baby birds were that are roosting on my porch every year? I can't wait for the leaves to fall off the trees so Ican get a better look at the goings on in that nest up there.
OOOOh that means your special
