Pope nicholas i ordered that every church in europe should have a rooster on its steeple as a reminder of jesus prophecy that the cock would not crow the morning until peter denounced him three times.
Thunderstorms wind storms hail storms and even tornadoes can all cause wind damage to your property and even high winds can wreak havoc on unsecured structures or rooftops causing roof leaks and other potentially catastrophic roof damage.
The wind cups do spin with the wind and the rooster does turn into the direction of the wind.
Ah the classic weathervane.
The vane usually resembles an arrow shape with the rooster on top which rotates freely and points in the direction the wind is coming from while the directionals remain stationary.
A rooster lays on egg on the top of the roof.

It s a must have for the back yard chicken farmer.
It s been up for years in the hot hot arizona sun and continues to look new.
Since in most churches the steeples had already a wind vane the highest point to place the rooster was at the top of the weather vane.
Which way does it roll.
