New Roosters

11:55, Friday 21 November 2008 .. Posted in Animals .. 0 comments .. Link
Yesterday, while taking our morning walk, a neighbor hailed us and asked if we would like a rooster or two. We were thrilled at the offer, we have been wanting to get a couple of roosters and here were two grown, beautiful roosters just waiting for us to take them home. We, of course, said "Yes" and that we would return today to pick them up. We needed to prepare a place for them to pass thier first day with us. We set up a temporary home for them next to the hen's run.

This morning, bright and early, we set off to the neighbors, with a couple of big boxes, and picked these two roosters for our own:



They have been named, the Buff Orpington has been named Andre, the Rhode Island Red is called Inigo Montoya, from the book The Princess Bride, a favorite book and movie, here at our home. The roosters have been spending today getting acquaited with the hens and getting used to us. We will put them in the hen's run tonight and hopefully tomorrow all will be on good terms.

We are hopeful that these roosters will help increase our flock and give us a few more laying hens.

God is so good to provide for our needs.
