Sweet Pea

Sweet Pea II - Feyetteville TX Hen
Sweet Pea II
A rooster “found” in the village of Fayetteville in the summer of 2010 has been named “Sweet Pea” in remembrance of Billie Freeman’s little lost hen. The rooster appeared one day – said to have jumped from a moving truck. He currently forages for insects in one of three yards – running briskly across the street when it becomes necessary to cross. - Ed

Sweet Pea

“I had a pet hen raised from a little chick that shared that back yard with me. It would get in the cars of folks who left their car doors open which was common then. It would always be returned as our friends knew it was my pet. But one day it got in the wrong car and was not seen by me again. I still think of Sweet Pea from time to time even though I have seen many pets come and go since then.” - Billie M. Freeman, formerly of Gray Mule, Texas
