| Fryer Cluck |
| Alarm Cluck |
| A pair of smart clucks! |
| Although sold separately, if you are a fowl fan you may want to order this pair of smart clucks from the artists of Canvas By Canvas. Each of these paintings is comprised of six 8" square canvases. Together the canvases in each painting measure 16" x 24" and are framed together in a custom-made wood frame. |
| This stately fellow is an Araucana rooster. He lives on a small country farm in Texas where he watches over and services ten hens who love him! They gather tightly around him for protection at night on the roost. This breed's personality creates a demeanor that is not aggressive or mean toward people. The hens often lay green or blue eggs, and are sometimes called the "Easter Egg Chickens." The rooster doesn't tolerate other pets around his girls and will chase dogs or cats away. He crows off and on all day. |
| The rooster is polygamous, but cannot guard more than one nest of eggs at a time. He guards the general area where his hens are nesting, and will attack other roosters that enter his territory. During the daytime, he often sits on a high perch, four to five feet off the ground, to serve as a lookout for his flock. He will sound a distinctive alarm call if predators are nearby. Did you know that roosters as well as hens cluck? Roosters make different noises from hens. As well as the obvious crowing, they make loud startle noises, probably as a way to warn the flock. Then they have a whole language that they use including a lot of clucking when they are offering bits of advice to their harem. |
