Up with the roosters! but 3;30 a.m.?!!!!

Post by **38nholding** » March 1, 2008, 7:46 am

I know what can be done with the barking dogs ,but anyone have any crafty ideas on home to exterminate a couple of roosters? I think I will just buy them from the owner and then murder them right before his eyes !
And the second part of this question is ,why ,now that I am up and fully awake and pissed off,do the roosters bed down ? Is anyone familiar with propane cannons ( keeps the birds off the blueberry crops at home.) Would love to hook one up to a switch I could just roll over and BOOM !! You know the adage,"if I am awake everyone is !!!" Thank you for letting me vent.

them suckers do wake up a bit early. then once one starts, then rest have to chime in. i'm guessing the cannon thing will wake them all up, then get the dogs barking.

good luck

...Have you tried a catapult, if you have a clear shot?

Or ear plugs?

Chicken soup sounds good, but you may have to eat it a lot because the Thai owners will get more when they know you'll buy them.

I once worked on a farm which had a very funny noisy talking galah sitting in the centre of the house, listening and repeating all the language and other sounds he heard. Charlie even had the farm and pet dogs fooled and would whistle for each of them individually and they would roll up to the back door on cue. Because the farm work started at dawn nobody minded Charlie starting his conversations as soon as the sun rose, except on Saturday night Charlie and his perch were ritually moved to an old blacked out dunny (toilet) for the night and taken back to his usual spot at 10.00am Sunday before the farmer and his family having had a good sleep in, left for church. Perhaps these roosters could be similarly fooled by putting them in to a blacked out shed at night and released next morning at a reasonable hour.

Easy remedy.

Indulge in 1 hours sexercise.

Result: Instant sleep.

Throw a dead chicken over their fence, phone the local government office and "sneeze" a lot

Perhaps they'll quarentine them for a week or so and give you some peace and quiet

Have you thought of bying yourself a pet fox

Post by **polehawk** » March 1, 2008, 4:19 pm

So a pet fox will enable you to do an hour of sexercise? Sounds kinda kinky but where's the nearest pet shop again?

I have a friend who had a similar problem and swore by a catapult (and marbles as ammo). He reckons they learn quickly.

Most likely, you will learn to live with it, and eventually you might even wonder why it bothered you so much in the first place. I went through it myself when I first moved to a small village. Many of us did.

By the way, perhaps this is yet another reason not to build a house in your wife's/gf's village.

the kids in my village in USA use to wrap alcoselzer tablets in a raw clam and give them to the seagulls when the bird digisted the clam & the pill it would explode meaning DEAD I don't know if it would work on a rooster but give it a try

38nholding, you need one of those Python Reticulatus that Don Thani identified in the World News section.

See 'Python Stalks And Eats Family Pet'

make sure you keep the kids in the house.

Don't kill them, you will find the village poleet knocking on your door, compensation to be paid to the owner and a 'manslaughter charge due to diminished responsibilitys' on your head.

Remember some people like to wake up with a cock in the mornings, and those that don't
soon learn to live with it.
