I’ve hatched 6 eggs and got 2 roosters. I was thinking about keeping one if I can manage the noise and agree with my neighbours.

If I do go ahead, how do I deal with the inbreeding thing? I assume he is probably going to try mate with his sisters… Obviously I wouldn’t hatch any of those eggs, but is it normal to just allow that kind of weirdness in the flock?

    Someone a street over from us got a rooster, and absolutely no one on my street is happy about it.

    If you’re within city limits, the rooster might technically violate quiet hours or noise ordinances.

      I understand that and have also mentioned this to another responder:

      At the moment this is a very prospective question. I’m talking with my neighbours about it currently and so far the ones I have spoken too are happy to see how it goes. It would only take one no for me to abort, as my relationship with my neighbours is more important to me.
