I have chickens. They aren’t cheap or free. You need space, a secure shelter, etc. and most cities don’t allow them. Not to mention all of the millions of renters of homes and apartments who cannot. It’s very much a “let them eat cake” statement.

I'd love to have chickens but without roosters, it's not sustaining. Roosters are great and not that noisy. If you mulch your food wastes, the chickens will take care of it. And, the manure is the best for vegetable gardens,
I have three roosters because I’m a sucker who can’t kill anything. But two are little guys 😂 I love my boys though and they are really good at their job.
Except for bantam roosters. I used to put on leather gloves and get the fight out of them. They are sneaky. You can get hurt when then attack from behind.
Watching roosters you realize that, sadly, rape is the norm in nature. Sad.
I have two Bantam roosters. They have been a little feisty once or twice, but now they’re generally just chill. The one in the video attacked me once when I leaned over with sunglasses on top of my head. But they watch the girls so close and get loud if anything is around.
Bantam rooster are the first to the butcher. I've seen it where the hens have had enough of them, because they can be brutes: they will gang up on a nasty one.
It's fun to watch the roosters fight. They will lay down their lives for their hens: I've seen this several times.
