A farmer has about 500 hens, but no rooster, and he wants chicks.
So, he goes down the road to the next farmer and asks if he has a rooster
that he would sell.
The other farmer says, "Yep, I've got this great rooster, named Kenny.
He'll service every chicken you got, no problem."
Well, Kenny the rooster costs $3,000, a lot of money, but the farmer decides
he'd be worth it. So, he buys Kenny.
The farmer takes Kenny home and sets 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.
Kenny seems to understand, so the farmer points toward the hen house and
Kenny takes off like a shot.
WHAM! Kenny nails every hen in the hen house - three or four times, and the
farmer is really shocked.
After that, the farmer hears a commotion in the duck pen and, sure enough,
Kenny is in there.
Later, the farmer sees Kenny after a flock of geese down by the lake.
Once again - WHAM! He gets all the geese.
By sunset he sees Kenny out in the fields chasing quail and pheasants.
The farmer is distraught and worried that his expensive rooster won't even
last 24 hours.
Sure enough, the farmer goes to bed and wakes up the next morning to find
Kenny 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 are circling over head.
The farmer, saddened by the loss of such a colorful and expensive animal,
shakes his head and says, "Oh, Kenny, I told you to pace yourself. I tried
to get you to slow down, now look what you've done to yourself."
Kenny opens one eye, nods toward the buzzards circling in the sky and says,
"Shhhh .. they're getting closer."
