They do not want the noisy roosters and don't realize they can still have hens without allowing roosters and people can still have fresh eggs. And yes, many a strong hen can rule the roost.<br /><br />Munir<br />I certainly hope you are right. While he does not seem to be losing any weight, he does not seem to be regaining the use of his injured leg. <br /><br />kenju<br />Many a chicken farmer would already have put poor Bonnie in a rooster stew. I hope he will overcome his injuries. I have seen a lot my injured chickens bounce back from worse injuries.<br /><br />Lynn<br />Thank you. I am hoping for the same.<br /><br />Riot Kitty<br />Nature is not necessarily cruel, it just has a plan that we don't understand. Bonnie performed some task that he was called to do and now he is left with the consequences of his actions. Hopefully he can overcome those consequences. Clyde was probably a good name for a girl cat:)<br /><br />Aunt Betsy<br />Perhaps I am confused. The way the chickens all returned to the hen house in a flurry, I assumed that Bonnie was injured in a scuffle with a predator but you could be right. He may have been injured by the junior roosters, King Kong, Hope, and Jack Bauer, Jr., ganging up on him for second position to the reigning Rooster Chicklet. That has happened before when younger roosters actually killed Daryl of the pair Daryl and other brother Daryl.<br /><br />Kerry<br />Oh yes, there are a lot of Boys names Sue around my place. lol I like “Bonnie Boy” and shall hence refer to him as thus.<br /><br />G.B. Miller<br />Nice to show photo of you dad. <br /><br />Sparkling Red<br />The animal kingdom is built 100% for survival and they go after it with no qualms or apologies. I try and try to hold off naming my animals until I know their gender for sure, but then something will strike my fancy that I think suits them and they get stuck with a tag before I can be sure. At least they don't tease one another.<br /><br />Arkansas Patti<br />Oh, I hope so too Patti. And he had quite a swagger. Perhaps that was the problem. Bonnie Boy was bigger than Rooster Chicklet and maybe this cock was getting too cocky. Maybe Aunt Betsy was right and it was the other roosters who injured him instead of a predator.
