with who had a similar rooster-like focus on women.

I once had Darryl fly at me and rip my calf to shreds.
Unfortunately
for Darryl there was piece of 4x2 lying next to me when he
attacked
and I swung it and knocked poor old Darryl unconscious. I thought
I'd
killed the poor thing but he came to and was as good (or is that
as
bad?) as ever. I eventually had to do him in because he was so
dangerous but he got the final revenge as he was as tough as an
old
boot.


I wonder if the OP is still going to get some dear little
bantams.....

Well if it's any consolation to him, Darryl was not a bantie :-)) The
foxes did for my banties (Chloe and Creswell) because the silly things
would roost in trees rather than go into the chook house at night.
