So flocking and fighting seem not to go together. Why would
roosters both insist in fighting and yet also on flocking
together?

They are probably fighting over the scarce resources they have access to.
But since you are not going to change that, it doesn't do you any good to
know that or them any good for you to know that.

Uh, no. They have a hundred square miles they can wander to if they want.
They have a daily pattern of some kind that involves wandering far enough
off so that I have no idea where they went.

There's lots of shelter in sheds and so forth if they choose; they prefer
the Maple tree for roosting at night.

Bird feeders around the neighborhood no doubt provide lots of seed on the
ground.

I'm just curious about them, when they do something odd. No empathy, sorry.
They're entitled to the consequences of their actions.

It's interesting like having a pheasant visiting would be interesting, as
happened a few years ago.
