Big, Rude Arlene

When Arlene let out her first crow, signalling that she was in fact a he, I knew what I had to do. Roosters are illegal here. Arlene had to go. "I could never butcher one of my pets," a friend reproached, which pissed me off. Neither could I. But semiferal Arlene, who swaggered around the yard snarfing up centipedes and bullying the hens? Not a pet.
