My buddy used to have a rooster... back when i was like 16 or so.. And of course, when i spent the night, the damn thing had to sleep in the room i was in, in a box... i swear i almost killed that lil bastard a couple of times at the crack of dawn.. a really stupid pet if ya ask me, but hey... my friend has had just about every kind of pet i can imagine... rats, turtles, lizards, snakes, chickens, dogs, cats....
