Polly-wally-doodle-doo

There once was a chicken called ‘Polly’,
whose name sounded happy and jolly,
‘til one morning at two,
she crowed, “cock-a-doo,”
now our chook is a rooster called Wally.

:) Best pet (before the dog) was the Indian Runner duck - smarter than chooks (and quieter than the dog, but just as funny)
