That is right! Even though Momma told her not to put two game type roosters in the same pen, she did. Same thing with the Billy goat.

I spent the first half of my childhood in the swamps of the Everglades. I spent the second part on a farm in Tennessee. The very first time we pulled the bass boat to the Everglades to fish I told her, “Don’t drag your hands and fingers in the water here like you do at home”. I told her that even though we have some bad biting critters in TN, we don’t have anything like she’d find in the swamps. So, what does she do? I turn around, her fingers are in the water, and just as I screamed at her she looked and saw the big Cottonmouth coming up to grab her hand. It almost got her. She listened to me for all of that trip.

You would think that after that, she would have listened when I told her not to get a Billy Goat and only have one rooster.

Interesting

I thought there were Water Moccacins in the Everglades.
