Chirping
I had to unexpectedly cull my first chicken today, my 12wk old cockerel started crowing this morning (we're not allowed chickens where we live, let alone roosters) so that was all very sudden and unexpected, but I think I did a decent job with the cull and processing and the poor guy is in the fridge for now. He was a beautiful australorp who was just growing out his beautiful shimmering tail feathers. We knew this was where the road would end when we discovered we had a cockerel in the mix, but i didn't think it would be today (and I didn't realize how loud crowing would be!!)
