Okay, so yesterday my bamton rooster punctured my lower leg with his spur. He attacked me! I just put some anitseptic on it and went to work. As the day went on, my lower leg hurt, turned red around the wound and startd to swell. I had to go to emergency. Got a tetus shot, antibiotics and an xray of my leg. So today, me being the judge, sentenced my bamton rooster to death! My brother, let's say he's the governor, gives the rooster a reprieve to the death sentence. "Life on Devil's Island!" Like in the movie "Papillon" with Steve McQueen and Dustin Hoffman. So tonite the rooster will be taken to "Devil's Island. (The Forest) But I think the rooster may take up revence on me, so I better be watching out for any old cadillacs following me. (Cape Fear)

When I was a kid, one of my jobs was to feed our chickens and gather the eggs. We had a little bantom rooster that liked to rule the roost, and he would try to attack me every single day. It didn't really bother me. I would just punt him across the chicken coop and he would leave me alone for a while. Sometimes I would have to punt him a second time on my way out because he would try to attack me again.

I was away for a few days one summer, probably to scout camp or something, and my sisters were too afraid of the rooster to gather the eggs. My dad scoffed at that and said he would gather the eggs himself. He should have known not to take his eyes off that rooster. He still has the scars on his shins from those spurs! That rooster came close to losing its life that day.

Hope your legs heals soon, Alicia.

My mind wanders. And that's not a good thing, 'cause it's too small to be out there alone.

Rooster spurs are nasty!

My dad has a rooster that is a watch dog, he crows every time he sees someone on the property.

I had a parakeet who wd attack me sometimes. I'd be drawing and he liked to come over and chew on the pencil while I was trying to draw. I'd flip him away a couple times and he'd get madder each time and finally come at my hand to chew on it. His name was Timmy, but he was a feisty little guy.

The picture of the chicken is a take-off from the movie Cape Fear with Robert Dinero.
 - Rmember this line from the movie, "Counselor! Come out, come out, wherever you are!"

We had this big red rooster that would ride on my shoulder when it was young. One day a year later something changed. I'd open the hen house door and that bird would come at me spurs first at face level. I had this bat, like a short baseball bat that was for knocking out big salmon. I'd hit that bird and alter his direction and after a few weeks he'd come at me a second time every morning. His neck met my splitting axe and the chopping block. It was the only time that I've killed an animal with delight. We threw it in the stew pot and even in the slow cooker, that bird was tough.

Well, the rooster has gone to "Devil's Island" Hopefully he'll join a flock of wild turkeys and blend in.

We had layers and Rooster. No attacks. But I think Grampa, gave him a few notices. Although, we would occasionally challenge the bull out in the next pasture and then run for the fence. Never got us...
That was Illinois, life as kids...

the standard sentence for a rooster who attacked anyone who was collecting eggs on my grandfathers farm more than three times and or inflicting harm was to be sacrificed for the Sunday after church meal in penance for their misdeeds

I also love Robert Dinero and thought that Cape Fear was a very cool movie; really cleverly done, one of the spooky creepy movies I will watch!

Thought I would see some "Why did the chicken cross the road" jokes on this one...or at least some variations...Cape Fear...maybe the best scene...when the De Niro's character and Nolte's character make eye contact at the end.

Freinds of ours have a wild turkey they have fed since it was a chick. It used to follow their daughter down to the school bus. It was like a watch turkey man, if u tried to mess with her it wud attack u. And we were over there last summer and it took a liking to my husband Clare. We went to go to the car to leave and the stupid thing came at me! It was scary I gotta say. Glad u got your leg fixed Alisha. Keep an eye on it girl.
