Every time I type this on google, I get responses like "rooster is a male while chicken is a female" that's not what I mean at all. My question is why "rooster"?
I'm asking because today I just noticed that every time a chicken wants to lay an egg, the rooster is always in the nesting box. I used to find it funny honestly, but is this the reason they are called roosters? Because they roost before chickens lay eggs? ALL my roosters do this and I just realized this May be a reason.
Please if you know, can you let me know? Or send a link to where it explains? Thanks
