My neighbour has a rooster and just got a calf. It sounds like we live on a farm. and the chicken pen has bright lights , so the cock crows all the time.

Eggs are very high in cholesterol. Good for you if you do not have a problem with your cholesterol. I only eat eggs now on Sunday when I have a once a week big breakfast.

My friends wife thought it would be fun to have roosters they had three, those things would cockadoodle doo all day. A red tail hawk took care of that.

Nature is brutal. Sleep is vital.

Awesome to hear on the calf! I have 24 birds including the 3 roosters.
I would like to get some cattle eventually once I get more land and a couple runs with some pigs.

Gotta keep your circadian rhythm in line.
Any (blue light) delays our melatonin release. (up to 4hrs). Easier said than done but I try to go to bed shortly after sunset. Iām a morning person so I donāt mind being up at 5am.

That would be annoying for sure. Thankfully no one too close to me has a rooster.
The neighbor on one side has beef cattle. Occasionally they get out on to my property.
The first time it happened, I call him and tell him his cows are in my front yard. Now, Iām from the city originally and Iām think this dude is going to show up with a truck and trailer maybe some horses and lassos and shit to get theses three cows off my property. Nope, he drives over in his sedan, gets out and starts walking towards them.
They all take off into the woods. I feel bad, he is an older guy probably 65ish. But he is in better health than people a third his age. So I get my boots on and go to ā helpā him. So apparently the plan is to chase them back through the barbed wire fence to his property. Nothing will make you question your sanity more than chasing a 2k pound animal with horns through the hills of KY.
So any way we get them down in a creek bed and Iāll be damned if those bulls didnāt go right up and through that barbed wire. Pulled a post up in the process. Crazy

Haha I hated wrangling cows in my youth, stubborn bastards! They are like yaā¦. Bring it asshole! Move me if you can, head down start eating grass like you are just a pest as they turn their back to you. I love your perception of what āshould have beenā I too would at least expect a trailer and some cowboys lol

I am to old for that much work!

Well, I did say older. As in older than me.
But I will admit right now. My neighbor with out a doubt will work circles around me. And Iām probably 20-25 years younger than him. I have nothing but respect for that man, he works harder than most. Old country boy for sure.
I meant no offense to anyone.

This is gold.
Nice to hear you helped and those barbed wire fences are no match for all the weight/momentum from the cattle. Great story and can laugh at it now too.
