Is it weird to say that your chicken looks straight gangsta? Like I'd invite that chicken to my smoke circle

Not at all, she seriously is. She will steal your lit cigarette or joint and run off with it. Look at this chook, she’ll cut a bitch.

It was 42°C out so I had them inside to cool off.

Edit: Also, that is my smoke circle in the first pic haha

I think birds are just kind of smug and self assured in general.

We evolved anxiety and they evolved flight. I'd be smug too.

Same. Four hens and this big bastard.

The suburban council area I live in doesn’t allow keeping roosters. Probably a valid rule to have.

What's their stance on dogs that bark all night?

Because this guy shuts up between the hours of 7 pm and 6 am.

That it’s against the noise curfew? Which ends at 7am on weekdays and 9am on weekends and public holidays. There are ~12 dwellings within 50m of my backyard. I would be an arsehole to all of those people if I kept a rooster. In fact, Void, the black chicken in the picture, has a brother named McFly. When he started crowing at around four months, we drove him out to my friend’s place in the country. He can be as noisy as he wants out there, and is living his best life.

Omgosh, your lovely lady looks very very similar to my old lovely lady that passed last year!

She was a rescue Issa Brown, we think she was a former farm layer due to the clipped beak. Absolute badass too tho.
