This magnificent rooster defended his flock of clucking hens from god knows what, and he’s got the bloodstains and scars to prove it.
Whatever it was that knocked, this rooster answered and survived to see another sunrise. Roosters are the head of the flock, charged with setting the pecking order straight and keeping that order within the group.
Yeah, they come to snuff the rooster…
Their other job is to be first in line to kick some ass, no matter what goes bump in the night, the rooster takes the hit for the group. Common chicken thieves range between free roaming cats to fucking bears, but the rooster cares not – his prime directive is to put his life on the line in defense of others and he serves his duty to the letter.
You know he ain’t gonna die.
