My family raised chickens. They are not as nice as you would think.
Wow.  Are they mean?  Do you have capon?.  I heard its illegal in some parts of the world
Our rooster attacked my brother when we were kids. Guess what we had for diner that night. I had never heard that they were illegal. Wonder why?
lol.  What was his name?  Its illegal because a capon is a castrated rooster.  Its suppose to improve the quality of the meat.
It basically turns them into hens. The hens keep laying eggs for him to fertilized but he is shooting blanks. No different than fixing your cat or dog.
Chicken
The chicken ("Gallus gallus domesticus") is a type of domesticated fowl, a subspecies of the red junglefowl ("Gallus gallus"). It is one of the most common and widespread domestic animals, with a total population of more than 19 billion as of 2011. There are more chickens in the world than any other bird or domesticated fowl. Humans keep chickens primarily as a source of food (consuming both their meat and eggs) and, less commonly, as pets. Originally raised for cockfighting

It seems couple of posts on this blog haven't sit well with Islamists and they took it personally, and we all know what happens then. I guess I have to clarify my position once again. I do not restrain myself because you think my thoughts are disrespectful to your religion, faith or whatever you believe in. I think the only valuable things that we, humans have are our free thoughts and reason
