I have had a turbulent relationship with my Wyandotte rooster, Steven. Although he has never attacked me, I can tell that he wants to. He’s constantly watching me, waiting to strike, and does his little rooster dancey dance whenever I approach the coop.

A few days ago, I was filling up some buckets with water to go nourish my little baby trees. All of a sudden, I heard some startling squawks coming from a frantic Steven. I assumed that perhaps an animal had entered their run. With haste, I ran over to see what the commotion was, and to my astonishment, I quickly realized that their waterer was knocked down, and Steven was signaling for help! How freaking smart is that for a chicken?! He saw me with water and made noise to get my attention for help! I was stunned.
