Now, if you could get Scotland Rising to do "Yakkity-Sax" on the bagpipes, you'd really have something to crow abou *whap!* Owww! What?!?
 
Thanks Kat, that was a natural ;)
 
Clearly, the rooster gave up, probably bored by the lack of challenge.
 
AR, you may well be right. Satchmo is a pretty savvy bird, for a chicken. Of course, all I have to compare him to are guineas, all of whom ride the short bus.
 
That must be a very young rooster; not once did he go into attack mode. When I was a kid my rooster, just like the Barred Rock Rocky you have didn't like being chased around. I still have scars. Never turn your back on a rooster. If you wear shorts have a leaf rake handy to guard your shins and thighs. Their spurs can cut through dockers, although jeans will give some protection. If you wave your hands over their head they will look up and you can drop kick them over an eight foot chicken wire fence after they've cut up your new school pants. Other then that...watch your 6...especially in their chicken run.
 
FM, I'm not stupid enough to try and kick SWWBO's animals. That's a death sentence. There's no kicking of animals at Castle Argghhh!, unless John does it when nobody's looking. Clearly, the rooster gave up, probably bored by the lack of challenge. Oh, come on. It was the kid's quest to catch Satchmo and if you had seen how proud that kid was when he finally did you'd kick yourself for taking that away from him. There's three spots in the vid where I had a good chance of grabbing the bird but passed up. I was the blocking element and Alex was the stalking horse. That's how I planned it and that's how I played it. When did I morph from gollum into Rodney Dangerfield?
 
OMFG... FUNNY STUFF!!!! Benny Hill is the PERFECT music (and fast-forwarding style) for rooster wrangling!
 
Now - To pay true homage to Mr. Hill, all we need is a couple of scantily-clad blondes running across the screen. :@()
