Caesar Boat

Don’t chickens look like boats when they sit like this? You could put this bad boy on a lake, crank the motor, and off he’d putter. Color him yellow and he’d be a great rubber ducky.

Caesar is our teenaged Light Sussex rooster. He hasn’t yet crowed, but he has shown some inclination of late to dominance. He flares his neck feathers like a cobra and has a good stare-down with whichever chicken has just walked by.

In general, though (and so far) he’s been a gentle giant. We all adore him, and watch in near disbelief as he gets bigger and bigger.

    I am so sorry to have neglected SS for so long. No excuse – as seeing your crafts so delight me. I see I had much to catch up on viewing and enjoy each and every one. Wish I knew where wee mice-eys came from and have not one clue. Your tree surely was spectacular with your lovely ornaments – next year a picture of tree please! If I were to ever be gifted with some I know right where to put them – I devised a little birdie corner which I would turn into a ornament display were I fortunate enough to have any. (hint on next year’s Christmas present! – feel my elbow jab!)

    he’s very handsome! I tend to think of them as tea cosies when they sit like that, feet neatly tucked under. But the boat image is also very apt!
