So while talking to my sister today she informed me that she had a rooster that has showed up on her property and just been hanging around. She noticed him out by her tomato plant the other day and he was pecking away. She thought maybe there were bugs near it and he was getting those. However, today when she went out to pick her tomato it was completely gone! She said near the end of last week she thought she had three tomatoes on the plants but when she went to them they were gone as well so she thought she had just picked them earlier taken them in and ate them. She said that he apparently took those too!! A neighbor came to visit and she asked him if he wanted a rooster. She told him about the tomatoes and he laughed and said, "Well you know what I will do with him.....I will fatten him up and then have dinner!" He then looked at her and asked, "Are you attached to him?" She didn't answer and he replied, "Yeessss. Yoooouuu are" and laughed. So when she told me this I asked, "Well have you named him yet?" She said, "I am trying not to do that". I later recounted this story to our other sister and when I got to the part of "I am trying not to do that" she exclaimed, "Pluck". I burst out laughing and said, "Oooooo I have to tell her this" so I quickly grabbed my cell and called her. She said, "Yeah with my luck everyone will think I said Cluck and we all know a rooster crows". LOL!!
