This farmer who was having a bit of a problem trying to get his hens to lay eggs. He went down to the feed store one day and discussed his problem with the owner.
The guy told him, "I have just the thing for you, wait right here." The feed store guy comes back a few minutes later with a rooster in a wooden crate. The farmer says, "I don't think that one rooster's gonna make any difference, I've got almost 2,000 chickens."
The feed store guy went on to explain that this was no ordinary rooster, this was "Brewster the Rooster," and he guaranteed this rooster would fix his problems. The farmer figured he had nothing to loose, so he took the rooster home with him and let him loose at the farm.
Well, that night there was quite a commotion in the ole henhouse! The farmer went into the henhouse to see what had happened and was startled to see all the chickens completely exhausted from the night's encounter with ole Brewster the Rooster. Well, the farmer just smiled and looked over at Brewster, who was dozing contently out in the barnyard.
The very next night, as soon as it got dark, there was more commotion in the chicken coops and the horses were raising Hell, too. In the morning, the farmer goes out and sees all the chickens "laying out" again and the horses could hardly move due to the work out they got from ole Brewster the Rooster.
The farmer kind of snickered and told the rooster, "Brewster, if you don't slow down, you just might kill yourself". Brewster did nothing but continue his well deserved nap. Well on the very next night, all Hell broke loose at the farm. The chickens, horses, cows, and sheep made such a racket that the farmer could hardly sleep.
In the morning, the farmer got up and surveyed the carnage. The chickens, horses, cows, and sheep were completely exhausted and the whole barnyard was torn up. Over by the chicken coop, the farmer spied Brewster, who was spread eagle on the ground and totally motionless, with some buzzards circling over him.
The farmer went over to Brewster and said, "Brewster, I told 'ya you better slow down, and now you've done it. You done got yourself killed!" Brewster picked his head up, opened one eye and said "Sshh...they're getting ready to land!"
