Kenny The Rooster
An American farmer has about 200 hens, but no rooster, and
he wants chicks. So, he goes down the road to the next farmer
and asks if he has a rooster that he would sell to him.
The other farmer says, "Yeah, I've got this great Australian
rooster named Kenny. He'll service every chicken you got, no
problem."
Well, Kenny the Australian rooster costs a lot of money, but
the farmer decides he'd be worth it. So, he buys Kenny. The
farmer takes Kenny home and sets him down in the barnyard, first,
giving the rooster a pep talk. "I want you to pace yourself
now. You've got a lot of chickens to service here, and you cost
me a lot of money. Consequently, I'll need you to do a good
job. So, take your time and have some fun", the farmer
said
with a chuckle.
Kenny seemed to understand, so the farmer pointed toward the
hen house and Kenny took off like a shot. WHAM! Kenny nails
every hen in the hen house-three or four times, and the farmer
is really shocked. After that the farmer hears a commotion in
the duck pen. Sure enough, Kenny is in there. Later, the farmer
sees Kenny after a flock of geese,
down by the lake.
Once again, WHAM! He gets all the geese. By sunset he sees
Kenny out in the fields chasing quail and pheasants. The farmer
is distraught and worried that his expensive
rooster won't even last 24 hours.
Sure enough the farmer wakens the next morning only to find
Kenny on his back, stone cold in the middle of the yard. Buzzards
are circling overhead.
The farmer, saddened by the loss of such a colourful and expensive
animal, shakes his head and says, "Oh, Kenny, I told you
to pace yourself. I tried to get you to slow down, now look
what's happened".
Kenny opens one eye, nods toward the buzzards circling in the
sky and says,
"Shhh, they're getting closer."
