Fitz's Fit of Fury

Murtagh Fitzgibbons Fraser (the tiny rooster) is furious.  After a month of receiving one egg per day (ONE!) from a flock of two dozen very hungry chickens (TWO DOZEN!), his fine feathered ladies took a one way trip to the soup pot last night.  One is indeed the loneliest number (in reality there are six birds left but as far as Fitz is concerned the turkeys and ducks don't count).  Fitz howled for his ladies all night long.  Constantly.  I could hear him from inside.  Our neighbours must hate us.  Thank goodness Ian is heading out to pick Fitz up a brand new flock of egg layers tonight so he will once again be surrounded by comrades.  Poor Fitz.  He may be tiny but he sure has an awesome crow of fury.
