One day a farmer decided that he wanted to expand his chicken
farming. In order to do this he would need a stud rooster. He asked
around his fellow farmers and the general consensus was that the best
rooster was from a far away town. His name was Randy. The farmer
went to this far away town and met with Randy’s owner. The owner
confirmed that Randy was indeed the best, but would come at an
expensive price. After much deliberation, the farmer decided to
invest in Randy.

When the farmer got home, he sat down with Randy and explained what
he needed and reinforced the great expense he went through to obtain
Randy.He told him that while he expected Randy to perform, he also
expected Randy to pace himself. The farmer released Randy in the hen
house and Randy went wild. Feathers where flying and Randy was
servicing every hen in the house. The farmer reiterated to Randy the
necessity of pace. The next day, Randy not only went flying through
the hen house, but also went after the dog, the cat, the sheep, a fox
and several other accessible animals. The farmer was
outraged. “Randy” he said, “You can’t possibly last at this
pace.” “Slow down, I need you for a long time.” Well, the next day,
the inevitable happened. Randy was lying in the field looking like
death was soon coming. Buzzards were circling around and slowly
getting closer. The farmer watched his investment slowly dying. He
dragged himself up to Randy and said “How could you?” “I asked you to
pace yourself, I told you how important you were.”

Slowly, Randy opened one eye and said “Shh, they’re getting closer.”
