Rooster Cogburn

Enjoys a tomato

His right eye is blinded

but manages with one eye just fine.

Rooster Cogburn sings his epitaph

I can endure much but not that

Since a quarter to three

He's crowed constantly

Water boils in the chicken vat!

Seriously RC is still improving.  The dogs take turns protecting him. My sister brings him treats and I keep him well fed.  He is only brave enough to crow after dark when the ruffians can't find him.

Today I heard Lizzy's sharp bark.  

This is what I found.

Lizzy was politely telling RC that was her food.

I got the "Gee, Mom, this is my bowl!"

 Lizzy finally gave up.

I wonder if she will protect him tonight?
