Apparently we have the same neighbors…
My advice if they ever ask if you have seen Roo… Smile sweetly, look blank for a moment, and say “Which ones are roosters???”
Free-ranging chickens
and free-pooping pups,
obnoxious neighbors
REALLY do suck!

:winkgrin: Priceless!
One of my clients is being taken to court by their neighbors. The neighbors free range chickens went onto my clients property and a dog (supposedly) killed one. They have pictures of the dogs and a whole flock of trespassing chickens hanging out in the back yard together. Don’t underestimate the litigious nature of our society, even over a stupid chicken.
Dobies are red,
Heelers are blue
Please come and get
your dog’s smelly poo.
Burma Shave!
You had a nice rooster
His cockscomb was red
Mr. Cluckers met hoofy
So he’s flat and dead.
So the tasty pressed chicken
He’s getting all crispy
Baked for 30 minutes
His loss is a mystery.
(Yeah, I know, crispy and mystery doesn’t rhyme)

Sometimes you do surprise me! :lol::lol::lol:

OMG
So funny. I shared the thread with my husband … “you girls are bad”
Yes. Yes we are. 
Your cock visits us
Your cock visits us
Hi ho the derry-o your cock visits us
My horse stomps your cock
My horse stomps your cock
Hi ho the derry-o my horse stomps your cock
Your chickens stand alone
Your chickens stand alone
Hi ho the derry-o your chickens stand alone
Yep, Shovel and Shutup (shoot first if you have to). Neighbors sound like fun - NOT!!!. NO way you can keep cats (especially partly feral ones) from dining alfresco on the neighbors trash. Seems like the worse something smells, the more cats’ll be in it. Normal kitty food is apparently boring. Perhaps if your neighbors lose enough poultry they’ll get a clue. Probably not.
love all the poets!
I would not give one of my roosters or any animal to these people. Poor rooster if you did.
with the chorus here…forget about it. you owe them nothing. Now, if these were nice neighbors, I might be inclined to give them one of my roosters. But jerks, don’t deserve innocent animals.
Sounds of Stompage
My apologies to Simon and to Garfunkel
Hello Rooster, my old friend
I’ve come to stomp on you again
Because a chicken softly creeping
Left its poop while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of stompage
In restless dreams I grazed alone
Narrow aisles of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a barn lamp
I turned my blanket to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of stompage
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand chickens, maybe more
Chickens roaming without fencing
Chickens scratching without pecking
Chickens being squished that coyotes never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of stompage
“Fools”, said I, “You do not know
Free range like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might scrunch you
See my shoes that I might crush you”
But my words, like flattened roosters fell
And echoed
In the wells of stompage
And the chickens bowed and prayed
To the free range god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, “The crows of the rooster are smashed on the horse-hoof walls
And stable stalls”
And whispered in the sounds of stompage.

Wow, Haiku!
Dare someone to do a naughty limerick using the alternate word for rooster…
Wait…no, I don’t want a Mod Slap. I didn’t say that. Nevermind. Carry on.
What’s naughty about “chanticleer”?
Damned hard to get anything to rhyme with it, though. :uhoh:
K, then:
OP has bad neighbors, we fear
Who poison cats and shoot at her deer.
But revenge it is sweet
For under wee TB feet
Lies the neighbor’s flattened ex-chanticleer.
What?:winkgrin:
I think she meant the word that rhymes with ‘doc’ :winkgrin:
NO way you can keep cats (especially partly feral ones) from dining alfresco on the neighbors trash.
cat-proof-fencing does exist and is widely under-used. Would probably keep the neighbor’s chickens out as well. And the neighbors (although they could probably still shoot through it).
