I love the sound of crowing roosters. Beats the sound of sirens, yelling, loud music and gunshots any day.

I love the sound of crowing roosters. Beats the sound of sirens, yelling, loud music and gunshots any day.

I thought the same until I have 3 and they crow all day and all night or at least it seems like it but they seriously crow in the middle of the night like midnight, 2, 3, 4am, constantly and a ton throughout the day too

I think three is just too many for our flock though so sadly I think I’m going to have to cull at least one of them. Starting with the “problem bird” I think is doing it Then if there is still crowing at night, I will know it wasn’t him and will cull his half brother, the pretty one

I think my little banty can stay since he sounds like a squeaky toy compared to my big huge standard boys I actually used to think he was loud LOL

Anyway, sorry for rambling on here. I love the country sounds and I used to love my boys’ crowing when they first started but one of them likes to hear himself talk and gets the other boys into trouble he gets them started and causes crow offs lol

And the statistical information about dogs and the south can be found where? Any factual sources?

I'm awake before the alarm...
It's new years Eve.
This has been a year for the record books.
I'm unsure how I'll ring in this new one.
Rained lightly all night with occasional gusts. It's to rain near constantly thru the next 20+ hours.
Winds forecast to regain strength.
Around midnight a wintery mix is forecast to show its face....
Acknowledging that which I have no control over and, that which I do; the scale is vastly unbalanced.
This perspective is mearly a counter point. For me, to "feel a balance" returned -
I could talk in circles or share a picture...
Would that become a spiral down the hole? Did this make a *balance* appear on the screen?
No worry's here, dogs are nosing me to go out.
I'm ready for breakfast anyhow.
Cheers.

@sdm111 , if you are referring to my comments about the Katrina dog migration after the hurricane, yes, there are interesting studies showing the spread of heartworms, specifically, after all those dogs were moved to new homes elsewhere. It was a fine rescue effort, but disease spread was not figured into the rescue operations, at least as far as heartworm and tick borne illnesses were concerned.

No, I never meant to imply that you were irrational. Where did I ever suggest shutdowns? I was talking a rational approach to the disease. Masking, distancing, common sense. No need or desire to 'pile on'. I have enjoyed your posts but will no longer get them.
