Humor: Ralph, the Rooster

A ROOSTER NAMED RALPH

A farmer had about 500 hens, but no rooster, and he
wanted chicks, so he went down the road to the next
farmer and asked if he had rooster to sell.

The other farmer said, "Yep, I've got this great
rooster, named Ralph. He'll service every chicken you
got, no problem."

Well, Ralph the rooster cost $3,000, a lot of money,
but the farmer decided he'd be worth it. So, he
bought
Ralph.

The farmer tooke Ralph home and set him down in the
barnyard, but first he gave the rooster a pep talk.

"I want you to pace yourself now. You've got a lot of
chickens to service here, and you cost me a lot of
money. Consequently, I'll need you to do a good job.
So, take your time and have some fun," the
farmer
said, with a chuckle.

Ralph seemed to understand, so the farmer pointed
toward the hen house and Ralph tooke off like a shot.
WHAM! Ralph nailed every hen in the hen house - three
or
four times, and the farmer was really shocked.

After that, the farmer heard a commotion in the duck
pen and, sure enough, Ralph was in
there.

Later, the farmer saw Ralph after a flock of geese
down by the lake. Once again - WHAM! He got all the
geese.

By sunset he saw Ralph out in the fields chasing quail
and pheasants. The farmer was distraught and worried
that his expensive rooster wouldn't even last 24
hours.

Sure enough, the farmer wents to bed and woke up the
next morning to find Ralph on his back out in the
middle of the yard, mouth open, tongue hanging out
and both feet sticking straight up in the air.
Buzzards were circling overhead.

The farmer, saddened by the loss of such a colorful
and expensive animal, shook his head and said, "Oh,
Ralph, I told you to pace yourself. I tried to get you
to slow down, now look what you've done to yourself."

Ralph opened one eye, nodded toward the buzzards
circling in the sky and said, "Shhhh! They're getting closer."
