11/30/2007Rooster Crowing Too Early Causes Owner 200 Euro Fine

ROME, ITALY

A rooster crowing at the break of dawn has earned his owner a 200 euro ($295) fine in an Italian court after neighbors complained it was waking them up too early.

The rooster's owner in Bolzano province would appeal the sentence, supported by the local Farmers' Association, on the grounds that he needs at least one rooster to breed chickens.

They say that "the early bird gets the worm," but let's put this all together. He's fined because his rooster is crowing too early in the morning. He says, quite obviously correctly, that he needs at least one rooster to breed chickens. So, I ask you, exactly what is it that the early bird is getting? Worms? I don't think so. No wonder the rooster is crowing.
