And Then There Were Two
As the fighting between Fluffy and Red continued we became increasingly concerned that perhaps our little 'Fluffy' was not the hen we believed her to be. When I heard two roosters crowing at dawn I sent Jamie out to investigate and he returned with the grave news that Fluffy was indeed a boy!
This raised two dilemmas:
1. We now have a rooster who has the misfortune of having the not very masculine name of 'Fluffy'.
2. We would now have to choose between the two roosters,
The first dilemma has proved not too hard to get around. Referring to Fluffy as 'Fluffster' is not too difficult but we will have to have a family meeting to decide on who stays and who has a date with the freezer.
