C is for Cock-a-doodle-doooo.

Over at the LoveCats blog a few weeks ago (Was it weeks?  I'm not sure.  We're back from holidays, it's raining, it's a cold, windy 18 degrees, the back-to-school malarkey is fierce and I feel like I'm revisiting last September.) I dropped in and said hello to two new members, farewelled two others and generally cracked jokes, rocked out to Elvis and stole cyber chocolate chip biscuits.

We were also asked to mention something about ourselves.  I mentioned our animals/children.  And Trevor.

Trevor is our rooster.  Specifically, he's a Bantam Partridge Wyandotte Cockerel (Hands up if you sniggered then.).  He's there to procreate (How about then?).  With the Bantam Partridge Wyandotte Hens.  I suspect he thinks he's above all that.  I mean, look at him.


He is a Very Noisy Creature.  Yes, "Cock-a-doodle-doooooo!".  And not just at the crack of dawn, either.  He will crow at four in the afternoon.  For fun.  He seems a little confused about his purpose in life.

As I said at LoveCats, our animals seem to end up with human names--Barney, Beryl, Esmae and Trevor.  I may have also mentioned that our kids are called Fluffy, Socks and Spot, but that, as you know, is a lie.  Turns out, Sharon Archer had a Bantam Rooster called Napoleon.  Very cool.  Wish we'd thought of that.

Poor Trevor is actually a bit of a dud in the procreation department.  All crow, no go.  Lucky for him he's pretty.

  1. He IS pretty isn't he. Poor Trev with the no go department, maybe that's why he crows in the afternoon. 'oh woe is me.'

    Quick, someone get the rooster a gee-tar and a pair of dusty boots! I feel a C&W song coming on... :)
