RANT about bad owners! >:(

I watched some of the video and I don't see a problem, except they're maybe a little crowded, can't really tell.
I have roosters with long spurs. That's how God meant them to protect themselves and my hens and chicks.
I keep some birds seperate from the others, sometimes in an empty stall.
I've owned some game-type birds.
Now, I'm not a public facility, but if you came on my property and left a threatening note, you sure wouldn't come back. And if you "snuck the chickens out one night", you may well get shot trying. Just sayin'.
I think you're way over reacting, from what I can see.

x4 Do not, under any circumstances leave threatening notes, or give any indication that you suspect they're fighting these birds. Number one, you have no proof. You could be way off base. Your friend could lose her place at the stable. Number two, if there is something illegal going on, you don't want these people to come after you. Be very careful.

Everyone at the stables knows that they fight them, no one tells for there own safety. I'm not a member of the stables and just visit weekly. That's why (and only this) I want to get the animal control to take them away.

Those were other people's birds. There are four coops up at the stables. Three are fine, just the one that I couldn't get into.

X5. MYOB unless you can prove they are fighting birds. Big spurs are a roo's pride and glory....my roo's spurs go a good 3 in and I don't intervene unless he is uncomfortable.

yes, the water bowl is dirty. But the hen doesn't actually look bad to me. And the fact that she is jumpy means what?? Nothing at all.
Roosters with scars kept separately? Nothing in itself
Roosters with long spurs? Nothing either
Did you know that many "fighters" actually remove the natural spurs and attach fake ones?
Locked in a stall? again, means nothing
Being yelled at for sneaking in? Means even less. The birds look like game breeds, so it is possible that they are separated because the roosters do tend to fight. They could be locked in a stall because of people like you actually. People who see them and want to go look at the birds. Some birds, esp roosters, are people aggressive. They could lose their business in a lawsuit.
Also, did you know that breeding, owning and selling game birds is completely legal?
Rumors that they fight birds? There is a rumor in my neighborhood that I own a coyote. (He is a sable German Shepherd and the woman is an idiot) YOU are starting a rumor that they are fighting birds. Maybe other people have done the same and that is why there are such rumors?
If they ARE fighting birds, what do you think leaving a note is going to do?
Do you actually think they are going to let someone they don't know, a kid at that, just walk up and start talking about fighting and say "sure, come over and we'll fight some birds!"? And if they AREN'T doing anything, then you have yourself on tape trying to solicit illegal activities.
I would report your suspicions to the authorities. And don't be surprised if it looks like nothing is being done. To arrest someone for this, there needs to be solid solid proof. Something besides birds in cages. Also, they prefer to catch the whole gang, so will try to get inside and witness an actual fight. That way, they can arrest all of the people involved, not just one player.

But where is her food? That's what bothers me.
