Cock a doodle

The red headed chick, the one who has looked like a fully formed boy from the day he hatched,  is starting to crow.  

It sounds like someone making crowing noises using a kazoo, but it is rather loud.  It wouldn't matter so much, but the weather is so hot that people (by which I really mean our neighbours) have their windows open at night. And at 4.30am when he starts.

A second boy is also crowing, but not so loudly.

This morning, DH got up at 5.30 to let them out of their run (the pop hole was open so they were out in the safety of the Cube run anyway),  and Redhead jumped straight on to the back of the bench and started trying to be the Kelloggs cockerel. 

I think they will be moving to the allotment sooner rather than later.
