Dead cock walking

I've seen two snakes in two days here at Hydrorancho. I wonder how long it will take them before they enter the chicken pen? The pen needs to be patched up again as during the winter season its been inundated with rodents. Hopefully that will ease up now that the snake season has started.
The time is ticking on the two roosters, the are now on borrowed time. Someone here will be cooking up two cocks for stew any day now. My pick is Derek and the new Young Boy are going to be eaten, perhaps a curry or a Hungarian dish of some sort. Who knows, but we can really only have one rooster and Old Boy isn't going anywhere. Old Boy has still got it in him, I saw him chasing around a hen the other day, sure he stops after a few seconds, but he's won my heart over. I can hear him crowing now, its so high pitched. I even saw Old Boy chasing around the new Young Boy, or as someone called him the other day, Young Old Boy. But that just a little confusing for me.
