As in are there any disorders/diseases common to Spitzhaubens? Like, some breeds are more susceptible to a certain kind of disease.

Certain breeds are more resistant to diseases, like Egyptian Fayoumis.

But I'm pretty sure Spitzhaubens are like the Average chicken, just as susceptible as other breeds.

Why would someone kill your rooster?

I don't have that answer. Found him in the middle of the coop one day when I opened it up to look at them. His neck was wrung.

You mean like someone annoyed by his crowing?
