Official Squatch Watchers

Henry the Rooster, I read and skipped around, but did he ever have to go to vet?
I wasn't able to afford a vet, but even if money wasn't an issue no one will see chickens around here. The one vet that said, "Sure, well I guess I can take a look," wasn't fifty feet from being an option for me.

Henry's wounds were numerous and serious. He had a sucking body cavity wound on his back and several large deep ones, and his right leg was paralyzed from the hip down to his toes.

It's been almost six weeks now and he has recovered full range of motion and strength in his hip, most wounds are now soft scars, feathers are growing, and the horrible swelling in his bad leg has significantly decreased. We're not sure if he can feel his foot yet or if the ankle will loosen and regain mobility, but when I take him outside he hobbles around with his flock.

And my dear boy is crowing. I never thought I'd hear his sweet voice ever again.
 
Ha!

My husband is listening to Christmas music and all of a sudden a Twisted Sister Christmas song came on our Pandora radio station. Twisted Sister!!

The last words were something like "Make it a really great Christmas!" and on the very last note, right on cue, Henry crowed!!!
We just looked up the song name. You can scroll back and see the songs you've just listened to on Pandora. It's called "I'll Be Home for Christmas."
