Roosters usually don't "play well" with other roosters.......especially if there is at least ONE hen around. I think farmers usually have one or two for every 10 or so hens. I'm talking about "free range" chickens. As a point, chickens and turtles both lay eggs..........the turtle underground and hens on top of the ground unless there's a hen house provided; then they lay inside of the hen house (cave or mine?) but only if there are nest boxes built there. Otherwise, the hens will find a place to their liking outside and lay their eggs. I don't remember finding a hen's nest any further than about 20 feet or so away from a hen house / yard. It's funny to watch a rooster "herding" the hens around; especially at dark when it's time to "roost" and they don't want to go inside. My Granddad had only one rooster for his average of 10 hens. A big old Rode Island Red that stood almost 2 feet tall. I didn't like to get around that mean bast.... LMAO. And, don't forget, roosters are known by a nickname of "Cock".
There's a small rooster, I THINK originated in Mexico, called the Bantam Rooster. They were small, but fiesty as hell. They'll take on anybody or anything that comes into their territory. MEAN little suckers and you could NOT have more than ONE roaming free around the chicken yard. They are really territorial. I think Fighting Cocks were originated from the Bantam line.
