With how noisy they get, I'm not surprised they get banned. Mine never shuts up. It is sad, but I understand why communities don't want people to keep roosters.It breaks my heart that boy chickens are so unwanted. They can really have such a crappy life just because they had the misfortune to be born male. It seems so unfair so many communities prohibit roosters. I also have 2 that my county does not allow.
