Is there someting wrong with me? UPDATE (page1)

[hikerchick]

I woke up at 5 am to the sound of my rooster NOT crowing. It concerned me so much that I went down to the pen and woke him up.

He got up and obliged.

I can't believe I worry about things like this.

UPDATE

He didn't crow this morning either.I went outside and he just looked tired. A few hours later he had passed away. RIP Rooster.

Whoever said my spidey sense was tingling was right. I KNEW something was wrong. I don't know how old Rooster was because he was a rescue. His girlfriend, Hen, died last week. They may have both been pretty old. They had a good last few months here- no one was digging up bugs and worms and hand feeding them at the rescue.

That is funny.

Nah, nothings wrong with you...you just got up before the alarm...

I get concerned when I don't hear mine and I get up to check.

I had the brooders in the little room next to our bedroom for so many months that I had trouble sleeping the first few days after they all went out. No quiet peeping!

I also start the night out with a 93 lb. Lab on my feet- if he's not there, I go find him!

DH somehow manages to sleep through it all!

OK, now, you know he's going to get you back tomorrow by crowing even earlier! Hey, he's not a teenager, is he?

Nah, he is the old man of the group. The teenagers seem to start after he wakes up. It's weird how I was awakened by a LACK of sound.

Your spidey sense was tingling. I've been known to prod my male cat when he's stopped snoring. You are just being a protective mom. Put a baby monitor in there and you'll never have to worry again.
