We have 2 who sit next to each other and compete, and they are still a lot quieter than him.

i had one a while ago now, that crowed non-stop for (i'm not joking) about 10mins, then fainted. Then did the same thing next day, some times they never learn  ::)

A friend of mine keeps some of those. They are Hungarian, I think.

There are crowing competitions held for the these long-crowers.

I went to the domestic fowl trust today to give the children a day out and there was a poster about these cockerels and the competitions! how weird, only came across this a couple of days ago and now 2 people have told me about them. I'm just glad there's none of these living near me!
