Old Butch !
Fred was in the fertilized egg business. He had several hundred young

>This took a lot of time, so he bought some tiny bells and attached

>the bells.

>Fred's favorite rooster, old Butch, was a very fine specimen, but this

>When he went to investigate, he saw the other roosters were busy
>chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing, but the pullets, hearing the
>roosters coming, would run for cover.

>To Fred's amazement, old Butch had his bell in his beak, so it

>Fred was so proud of old Butch, he entered him in the Brisbane City
