It must have been fun to grow up in a farm with all if the animals. You paint a good picture of how it was. Thank you. 🌹😄

WE had a goose once call Tom. He was destined for Christmas. We kids sad looking sad.
A little voice said, 'Poor old Tom.' Dad said, Don't say things like that, you are putting me off this dinner..🌺🌺

This has me thinking of the farmer's intention for Babe. People think of eating the farm animals later.

My son had a rooster growing up. Never fail at 6 a.m. he'd crow and crow. I think you have a great start on a cool story!

I imagine a rooster being a really annoying alarm clock on an early morning when one is sleep deprived. The life of a farm child is not an easy one. There are plenty of chores to see to and lots of furry and feathered creatures to say goodbye to. 🐓

We had a bantam rooster once, flashy red comb at the top of his head, impressive wattles and tail feathers that were a crowning glory. We didn't need an alarm clock when he was there to announce the dawn. And we dared not put our hands through the cage wires to pour grain into their feed dish, or we'd get pecked by the feisty guard-rooster.
