Thank you it hurts so much he was our pet rooster, there are people don't seem to understand how much he meant to me, he has his unique personality that sometimes the only think He could not do was talk. He was so special, he was so funny, sometimes he just stood in front of me and made his sounds, I just said yes Joe, yes, Or just I do not agree with you and he's crowing becomes louder. If he was hungry, he just comes inside the house and walked in the living room and comes where you were. He actually knew where our bedroom is. If we tried to sleep longer in the morning on weekends he made sure u noticed him because he went exactly under our window crowing. He got along with the dogs and sat always beside them outside their playpen. I think he played big brother cause we got the girls as puppies after we got him.
