Kids I’m old now, but back when I was about 4 years old, an older sister (8 years older) took my (2 years younger) sister and I to visit new chicks born at our next door neighbors place. Somehow I got left behind and trapped in the hen house by the rooster. I remember him slowly pacing back back and forth at the door while making a dreadful noise as I stood paralyzed. Finally, he came at me, scratched my face and I ran out and back home. The next thing I remember is seeing my big brother using a shovel to remove its head.

It was not the rooster’s fault I had been left there. I felt relief when the rooster was dead. To this day I do NOT like roosters.

>there I was.. TRAPPED in my enclosure with this 2 legged beast.. I had never seen a creature so intimidating in my short life. They just stood there.. staring at me.. menacingly.. I tried my best to make a defensive stance and loud noises to scare the threat away, but it only intensified his gaze. I decided it was now or never.

>I run straight at the threat, not sure if I would make it out alive. To my surprise, thrashing wildly in his vicinity was enough to remove him from the situation. I thought I was safe, until a larger two legged beast showed up moments later, this time with an extendable arm..

>The next moment I knew, was darkness.

Both of us were 2 legged beasts. The rooster was not the one trapped in the hen house, I was, and my life at the time was shorter than his.
