Ok, maybe someone can explain to me why anyone would want to own a rooster in a residential neighborhood.
The apartments I live in are backed up to a trailer park. Not the best thing to see when I look out my window, but oh well. Anyhoo, months ago the idiot in the trailer right behind us decided to get a rooster to go with his chickens. No biggie, it was cute at first. A week later I was ready for some fried chicken. The damn thing woke us all up at 5 am. Paul called the non-emergency number to the cops and asked them about it. Nothing they can do. Its not against ordinance to keep a rooster in the trailer park. Annoying yes, but not breaking any rules. If we want to fight it go to the city council meetings. I say phooey on them. I wrote out a "nice" little note and walked over to the trailer at 6am. I knocked on their door. No answer because they are (shock) asleep. So I put the note on their door. The note said something along the lines of this is not a farm, did you ask your neighbors if they wanted to be woken up at 5 every freakin morning, etc. It worked, they got the point. I hadn't heard the damn rooster before 8 am.
Until this past weekend. I hear it at 5am again. I guess they think since school is out the damn thing isn't interupting anyones sleep.
Anyone for a chicken fry?
