Cock pens

[Shot]

Is there some sort of contest going on? I have only seen a few of these over the years, but have seen a growing number in the past few weeks. One of my neighbors has six of them, but no cocks. Another neighbor is proudly displaying one in his front yard. But, no cocks. We have one hen, and one large cock, but they stay in our yard, most of the time, so no need for a cock pen.

I would say your neighbour has lost six fights and has had chicken for dinner every sunday for the last six weeks.

His wallet is probably less a few baht as well.

Me too. There are many things you can do with a cock but writing isn't one of them

I disagree. When I was a younger man, I wrote my name in the snow with my "cock pen." :) :)

I assume you have not spend your youth with snowy winters.

You're probably an Aussie thinking of budgie smugglers

They don't sell yellow ink round our way...

I think it is high time for you to take yourself in hand Nomad Joe!

Oh. We had whole industry built around it. There was even dedicated refill stations pretty much everywhere.

Either they have lost a bunch of fighting cocks that weren't up to the task, or they are going to be buying some new cocks in the hope they are up for the task. My wife's son uses these cages for his brooding hens, especially the aggressive ones.

I think this could be the real answer.. Though it's not allowed.

We don't need dangerous Cock-tails here...

I thought I had answered it?

Father-in-law lost 7 of his fighting cocks one 1 Sunday. The pens are being kept for the next batch of gladiators.

Peace and quiet early am for the next few months...

Before my wife's son moved the cocks he breeds away from the house it was impossible to sleep much past sunrise, he has to keep the cocks with the will to fight separated using the pens or they would literally kill each other, but its not just the cocks that fight, I've seen the hens having a good go at each other too.

I reckon the potential for penile penmanship might be one of the only things I miss about New England and Canadian winters...It's tough dotting those 'i's and crossing those 't's, though!

[NamKangMan]

It's always disturbing to see "penned cocks." I usually see them in the Phuket Airport. They have very sad faces. :)

Not only sunrise either, can be a long time before and carry on long after. Then the village speakers kick in.

Due respect, and once the monks are safely back in the Wat and out of hearing distance, then Black Sabbath come in on volume 11 (Spiral Tap told us that's the loudest right?).

Did someone say revenge is a dish best served loud, or something similar?

Shot: First of all, it's very good that you are trying to learn from your neighbours experiences how to protect your one and only. Local knowledge is, after all, what each of us should listen.

If I understood correctly, the root question was: should you keep your cock in the cage or let it go free.

If you let it roam free, things might get tricky, especially when you cock is the largest and strongest in the neighbourhood. That might cause envy and rage among some neighbours.

On the other hand, some neighbours might love it, pet it and even invite it to their homes to be treated well.

Then again, the controversy of opinions of different people's ideas of freedom is the dangerous part. Some angry neighbours might broke the neck of your cock if seen within their premises.

If, on the other hand you keep your cock in the gage, it might be just happy what it has and live a longer life. Some cocks actually like when they are put in a confined place, fed regularly and given enough to drink. Who knows, that might make your hen to lay golden eggs after a while?
