What Roosters are Supposed to Do

I was in the shop and looked up to see a rooster with two hens. It was a colder night. I did not think much about it after that and I went on about my chores. When I was finished with my chores, they were still up where they were. The rooster had positioned himself in front of the hens and was cuddled up to them to keep them warm. That’s what a rooster is supposed to do, protect the hens. He was doing his job that night and I’m sure the hens are grateful.
