Bored couple grazes grandson's roosters

An elderly couple in Xi'an, capital of Shaanxi province, doesn't have anything to do since their grandson went to university so they're grazing roosters in a local park.

Xiao bought some chickens for fun and left them to his grandparents when he went to university last September. "Now we have only the roosters to accompany with, as my sons are working and my grandson left for school," the man said.
