A mother has been forced to arm herself with a rake every time she walks through her own garden because her family live in fear of a killer cockerel who chases everyone he encounters.
Rebekah Williams, 32, from Torfaen, Wales, has spent the past six months frightened of being attacked and having her eyes gouged out by angry bird Derek Jr who truly believes he rules the roost with his mean attitude.
Ms Williams doesn t even bat an eye-lid when she hears screams coming from her yard, because she knows son Oliver Williams will be facing their pet s fiery temper.
She shared the family s fear in a viral Facebook video which shows her 10-year-old screaming in terror as Derek Jr chases him across the lawn and down a garden path.

Feeding Fluvanna began in 2017 by a group of people from Grace and Glory Lutheran Church. It is a county wide event to collect food and monetary donations to assist Fluvanna Christian Service Society (FCSS) and the Monticello Area Community Action Agency (MACAA), who work together to manage the local food bank based at the Carysbrook Complex. Our first year the project began simply enough: host a food drive to support our local food bank. As our team began discussing how to make it a success, our project quickly grew into a community-wide event, bringing together 11 local churches eager to share our mission. Working side-by-side with other congregations and local civic groups that heard about our plan, we learned the true meaning of community. Many of us had neighbors in our county that needed help feeding their families and we were determined to help them out.
