Put two fully adult roosters anywhere near each other and one isn’t going to walk away.

Around 1947, my parents decided to raise chickens in the garage of our country home (think starter home). So the story goes (I wasn't born yet) neither one of them could go into the garage to collect the eggs without being attacked by the rooster. My father had to take a broom with him. Then he couldn't bring himself to kill a chicken.
Needless to say, it was a failed experiment. I don't think they knew what they were doing, and supposedly some farmer in the area ended up with free chickens and a rooster.
Followed closely by the dog eating a pound of black-market butter. I still wasn't there, so it's all hearsay.
