Friends, I can’t write much, but I wanted to share that Rooster passed last night. I am relieved for him and devastated for me. In my life, I have found very few souls I could count on completely. Rooster was smart, competent, loyal, and a good friend. I knew he would always take care of the flock.
What will we do without him?
Remember, losing a beloved soul like Rooster does not remove part of your heart. It opens it up even more to find another beautiful soul in a place you don’t expect. Rooster did a great job! And so did you!
Terri, thank you for these kind words. I have to remember this. I have to. I have to. Thank you for understanding and supporting!
I’m so sorry for your loss. Rooster was wonderful to read about. I’m a city girl and didn’t know until reading about him that roosters can be leaders and protectors without having a bullying attitude. <3
Oh, thank you for the kind words and for reading about our Rooster. I wrote with one last post with stories to honor him. I hope they make you smile. He was the best! https://farmerish.net/2025/08/23/better-creatures-or-on-the-passing-of-rooster/
