REPOSTED TO ADD THIS STORY:
once upon a time...a long, long time ago, a lot of us bloggers were on RATE MY SPACE, having such a good time. SOMEone, and I'm not naming names, said, "HEY..let's all post pictures of our ROOSTER collection." Now..you were SUPPOSED to post photos of your rooms...NOT your roosters so...a lot of nice ladies got a little mad at us sillies for playing with our roosters. We posted and posted...and our own NIKKI CRUMPET of BLAH BLAH BLAH BLOG so wanted to play the ROOSTER GAME but ...alas...she didn't have a rooster one !! Not even a baby chick....Not being one to "throw in the towel", she raced to her kitchen, flung open the freezer door and the next thing I knew, there, in bold color, FOR ALL THE WORLD TO SEE, was a photo of ....the prettiest FROZEN, CUT UP chicken you ever did see !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi BJ!!!
So glad you stopped by! I love your roosters!
My grandmother Meme collected them and now I have many of hers. They are so charming....I plan to do a rooster project soon!
love, kelee
I love all the roosters! Recently my hubby saw a wire hanger thing with 3 handpainted rooster plates hnging on it, and bought it for me. They are my first roosters, and the display hangs in my kitchen. I'd love to start adding more--I especially want some ceramic ones to put up on top of my cupboards, but everywhere I look,they are very expensive. I won't give up, though! Thanks for sharing your great photos!!!!!!!
BJ, you have an awesome collection of roosters. I just love the napkin rings.
What will we all do when roosters go out of style? I love them too much!
You really do have some gorgeous roosters. I love them. The plate with the polka dot is so different and so pretty. I love all of your collection, they are such fun. Hugs, Marty
Ooh, look at all the cockadoodlers! Wow, I thought only Shelia had that many birds, but damn girl, I think you two are neck and neck! But can I just say (ahem... getting ready to duck) that you could at least spell Shelia's name correctly? Heeheeheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Ooh girl, I'm running for my life! Don't come after me with that metal rooster with the pointy tail feathers!
Justine :o )
BJ!!!!! I love every one of your roosters and goodness, what a collection you have!!!! Wow, girl, I think you have me beat.
Love the header on the blog...you are a doll. Thank you so much for being a part of this.
Big old hugs, Barb
You really do have quite a collection! Love them all! We have the same black polka dot rooster plate! I love that rooster kitchen towel!
The dish drainer is from TJ Maxx - I thought it was plate rack at first but then I noticed it has a place for silverware! LOL - oh well...it works well for displaying plates anyway!
Manuela
Hi BJ! I am really enjoying all your roosters! Love the polka dotted plate. Very pretty!
Blessings,
Sandra

Wow! I so love your rooster collection. I never realized how many people love roosters.
Love your gorgeous roosters BJ!!!!
What a stunning, unique and very creative post. The polka dot plate is just beautiful as well. My favorite piece you have here!
Beautiful post in every detail! ~Warmly, Melissa ;)
You are a stinker, BJ!! You told Shelia you didn't have many roosters and you have almost as many as she does!! But I love them all.
My husband would die for the weathervane~he is in to those right now ;-) and I adore the rooster rug by the sink.
Great collection, sweet lady!
xoxo
Jane
Ah,BJ,you are a "rooster collector extraordinaire"!! I LOVE your Fowl Friends. . . .they are all just a flock of fun. You have them all displayed so well....great tour!!
Happy RP!! Dana
Hi BJ; Wow I love all you great looking Roosters... I did not know that so many ladies in blog land loved them... I love them too, I have a few, but sadly they did not make the trip with me they are still back home.. but soon they will be here in my new home.... thanks for sharing..
Hugs;
Alaura
I am loving your roosters! Every single one of them. I can't participate in this fun event...with the move and all. I might have to have a delayed rooster post down the road.
Hugs,
Penny
Thank you for your sweetness BJ!
Confession...I just pulled the S/P shackers out a drawer for the party. Now we are both inspired to start using them. LOL!
Have a wonderful weekend my friend. ~Melissa :)
You have some great roosters -- alas, none live at Linderhof! But I can enjoy yours!
I think that between you and Lynne...I need to start roosters anonymous!!! what amazing collections!!!
Hello BJ! I just KNEW you would have the most fabulous roosters! And I was certainly right. Oh, the weather vane, the tray, the ways you display them all so sweetly!! Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful collection & your beautiful home!
Big Rooster Hugs & Pecks,

My Dear BJ..this post is surely a feather in your hat! Surely adorable...and YES...the rooster/candle would be a perfect bloggie header...YOU are something to really "crow " about...roosters do crow right? You must be a rooster expert!
BJ, You certainly do have some roosters...I like the plate with the polka dots and the napkin rings with the polka dots. They are all great, but these are my "bestest".
Happy Rooster Party!
Barbara
Love your collection and as ALWAYS, your display is WONDERFUL! Have a blessed day!
LOL That Nicki thinks a good bit like me!
You have such a pretty collection, and of course, I love the blue plate!
You are so right, BJ. This brings fond memories of our Rooster Parade in the spring of last year.
I love all of your roosters!
Hi BJ
I love all your roosters! You have quite a collection. The ones I like the best are the little napkin rings. Like you I am a sucker for black and white dots!
Hope you have a happy day.
Hugs, Rhondi
Beautiful roosters, BJ!! Great collection.
I love the weather vane!
I remember all those roosters on RMS. Someone said, "I got the rooster virus." An bought a plate at Ross which has a rooster on it.
What great roosters and I especially love that polka dot plate too. I have a small rooster shelf that my granddaughter loves to play with.
The Raggedy Girl
Oh, my! What a grand collection of roosters!! You win the prize!!Hard to choose a favorite, hmmm, maybe the blond one, or the black and green one, or the big prints!! I just love 'em all!
Sure enjoyed reading all the funny things you wrote and the feathers are indeed flying! LOL!
I had a bunch of replies to do before yours, but just had to jump ahead and come thank you for telling me you always start at the bottom of the lists! I was worried nobody would reach the bottom of almost 200 entries! Thank you for that and for telling me!!
Katherine
Hi BJ,
I absolutely LOVE all of your Roosters!!! They are all just fabulous!! I think a couple of my favorites are that black polka dotted plate and the big weather vane, but they are all wonderful!!
You asked about snow on the blog. I haven't had it since last year but my post about how to get it was done on Dec. 6th 2008. Go back into my archives and hopefully the link I had there still works. Then you can have your "fairy" dust again.♥
My goodness what a large collections!
I loved them all!
Micki
Good morning BJ, your rooster party is awesome. I love everyone of your delightful photos. I remember the rooster parade. I wasn't posting yet and that is one of the reasons I decided to blog. Soooo much fun involved. I do love the fun of sharing and making friends this way. I didn't remember Nikki's photo. What a hoot. I wish she would start blogging regularly again.
Thanks for your visit BJ. I was too tired to finish my post last night. I added a bit more this am. These shingles have slowed me down. I am feeling much better.
Your tablescape from yesterday is beautiful. I love the lake shore theme. Your table settings are the best.
have a happy rooster visiting day.
Love ya, Jeanne
Oh. My.
First you have such wonderful roosters on display and then I get to the bottom of the post and that story is just hysterical. Seriously, that made my day....I am till chuckling over that....
I enjoyed my visit to your rooster party, and I think I love your rooster prints too....beautiful.
Girl!!!! you do have some wonderful roosters!!!have a greatweekend...thanks for sharing...Pat H
You even changed your header for the occasion. I think that deserves a prize! All you rooster ladies should have counted to see who has the most. That would have been a fun contest.
I too have a few roosters but I'm not sure I'll get a chance to take pics and post them. We'll see. Yours are great!
I loved the roosted trays!
You've got a great blog.
Have a nice rooster Friday,
Val
I love all your roosters, BJ, especially the pictures and uh, everything else, lol! I have the Portuguese one too but mine is black and I can't remember where I have placed it.....Christine
Hi BJ!
Gorgeous roosters girl!! LOVE that weather vane! too cool for words!
Have a great weekend! Hugs, Sherry
That is some rooster collection, BJ! Quite impressive. I do remember that rooster ruckus over at RMS. I don't have a single rooster either so I couldn't play then (or today). Lots of birds but no roosters. Not even a chicken! That Nikki is a character, isn't she? LOL.
I had forgotten about the rooster party on RMS. I was just a lurker then, but enjoyed everyone's roosters. And today's collection around blogland is even greater. I love the variety of yours - they are all just great. Sally
Wow, Bj, you have quite a collection of pretty roosters! I just love the polka dot plate, and such cute little napkin holders.
Debbie :)
Thanks for stopping by. After Pat's visit I realized today was the day. I have never collected roosters. They can be so beautiful though. They are obviously a favorite to collect. My world had been upside down lately with our daughter's illness. Blessings
QMM
Great roosters! I really love your weathervane!
Blessings!
Gail
WOW, you have a LOT of roosters, and have them displayed so beautifully throughout your home. I'm having fun looking at all the rooser post today*! I hope you are having a great afternoon*! _Ashley*
LOVE all your pret fowl friends!!
I remember when Nikki did that! She is a pistol!!
Your home is so happy and so warm and so pretty!!
Roosters are just fun aren't they?
Love and cock-a-doodly-doo from Sue
Hi BJ,
I think you are the queen of roosters. What a wonderful collection you have.
hugs,
Barb
Hi fellow party goer, Great display of roosters, I love the weather vane one!, Have a great weekend!x
Hey BJ! lOVE your roosters... pop over and enter my drawing... smiles, and hugs to ya!
Wow, BJ.....you have got quite a collection! Loved looking at all of them. It sure would be hard to pick a favorite.....your little napkin rings certainly did make me want some of those though!
Elaine :)
Oh a cute cute post sweet BJ ! When you make your header out of that pic, don't forget to put your sweet nothings sign in it too.Just thought I'd mention that to you . I 'm off to see more cluck clucks !
What wonderful roosters you have. They are all so charming. I have never seen so many roosters as I have today. Yours are all beautiful.
Lots of super dooper roosters there! Had a good chuckle at the end.
Hugs,
Sandi - My Roosters Party On
I love your collection. too hard to choose a favorite
Whoa!
You are the rooster QUEEN!
I can't believe the Sweet Nothings candle!
Kismet!
BJ, I think you have usurped my previous nominee for Queen of the Roosters. Wow, what a lovely collection of so many different genre! I do love your framed ones, though, the best. The color and vibrancy in them is spectacular.
I bow to you, oh highness of barnyard fowl....
Sue
Well Miss BJ, I see you are NUTS about ROOSTERS.
I am rooster deprived, but that's ok, I played anyway! Not one to miss a party!
You have a wonderful collection..and do I spy McKensie Childs black checks????
Great post, and I loved the history lesson..I was glad Barb didn't mind my hen and chicken, or my chicken pot pie!
Have a good weekend, we are battening down the hatches for Danny, supposed to blow into town with some wicked weather!
So as the old song said,"If you don't get a letter from me than you know...
I'm..blown away! :)
Thank you for your very sweet message BJ!
Your rooster collection is really wonderful! I'm especially CRAAAZY about that rooster on the polka dotted plate!!
Cute!!!
Have a GREAT weekend!!
Sherri:)
Beautiful showing of your roosters. They are so bright and colorful. You really had a nice contribution to the party. Thanks for my comment. Come by again next Tuesday, 9-1.
Now you know I absolutely LOVE that plate! I have the same rooster as you too!
Hugs,
Dena

BJ,
I love your roosters! As a fellow collector it's always fun to see how different they each are.
Gretchen
Hi again BJ! Love them all but I adore the two large prints from your friend! Nancy is a sweetheart and I think it would make a gorgeous header!!! and lastly your little history note at the end; I don't think any of us who follow Nikki would have expected anything else given her wacky sense of humor which I adore!!!lol Have a great weekend - Sincerely, Jeannette
Hi BJ! Loved ALL your roosters here today!! I think my favorite, honestly, was the proud old wooden thrifted one!! Hope you're enjoying all the rooster festivities, and that you're having a wonderful weekend! ~tina
You have a great collection of roosters. Just love them. My favorite, and anytime I see one I want one, is the weather vane. Love it. Debbie
I love all the roosters and have you have incorporated them into your decor. In particular the clear glass rooster is adorable. Blessings, Janet
Hi BJ,
This is my first time visiting your blog. You have a lovely rooster collection, it makes it difficult to choose one in particular! I am glad I found your blog, I look forward to following.
Blessings,
Jan
I know I'm late, but didn't want to miss this important date! Glad I didn't miss your party, BJ. As a MCK-C fan, of course I adore your black and white polka dot plate with the red. Thanks for sharing all your roosters.
Have a good weekend! ~ Sarah
I love your roosters. You have some really unique glass ones.
BJ, I love them all, the tray is wonderful, napkin rings. I love to have a chick like them! Lady, you have some roosters! I did not find one that I did not adore! They are great! I should have shown the ones in the kitchen, or my rooster chandy, or pot hanger. Another time! lol I love all yours, you have me beat! Love seeing them. I wondering where your red hutch is sitting??????? Do I are paint the one in my kitchen that hold my blue and white china? Hubby not too keen on red, but I am sneaking it in! lol
My granddaughter's birthday was this weekend & I was busy w/ preparations so have been unable to visit the party goers until now...sorry!
I wasn't a rooster lover (blushes) but I think I am after that rooster party. There were so many gorgeous ones...love your's BJ!
Not sure what changes you've made to your blog but it has enabled me to scroll w/out it "hiccuping" on me...thanks!
I'm still making my rooster rounds!
Love all the roosters you have here!!!
esp... what a welcoming rooster greeting the guests!
...lovely rooster flower pots
...perfect pair of rooster prints
...great weather vane! (I need one to show me where I need to go!)
...and haha...sh!, you should say "fried chicken" too loudly!
(oh dear...did your little rooster got injured during all the partying?) (this one is a Portuguese Rooster...at my party we talk about the "tail" um...Tale of the Portuguese Rooster.)
Blessings & Aloha!
If you're not tuckered out...hope you stop by my rooster party :o)
