I was curious about how you assert your "alpha" over pecker. I can't have roosters in my township...but my oldest hen did take over the alpha position in my flock, second to me.
Again...just curious more than anything else..
On a side note..he really is a cute roo..
Maybe if you went to all your neighbors that are rather close and asked them nicely they would sign a petition letting you keep him. I don't think any of the authorities would care that you kept him as long as your surrounding neighbors didn't care.
