I think there’s been some sort of mix up. He wrote to the council complaining about the cock next door.

Their argument that other nearby houses have chickens is a very poor one unless they also have cockerels. Hens are very different are far less anti-social for your neighbours. I wonder how many of those that have signed their petition to keep it live within 100 metres?
It would appear they are back in the news again….
Councillor urges neighbour to withdraw complaint about ‘modest’ noise of pet cockerel
A councillor has urged an upset neighbour to withdraw his complaint about a family’s crowing cockerel saying the noise is “quite modest”.

I had some sympathy for the family until I realised who it was. They want to live off grid fine but doesn't mean getting a council house and benefits. I'd imagine it's hell living nextdoor to them, cockrell or not.

They should write a book on how to work the system. It’d be a big seller and they do seem to be medal contenders at doing it.
We once had a cockerel and my father got so pissed of with it’s crowing that he killed it and cooked it one Sunday lunch. He only told us after the meal that it was OUR cockerel that we’d just eaten! It didn’t go down well. He was Irish and came from a family of 11 who reared and ate their animals. Even had a pig that used to come into the kitchen apparently, probably ended up there too.
