Cockerel receives notice after neighbor’s complaint

Artist Sue Farthing, 58, is facing an ASBO threat from South Norfolk Council due to her cockerel, Colonel, whose morning crows reportedly disturb a neighbor. Despite Sue’s efforts to mitigate the noise by locking Colonel in a soundproof coop and blacking out the windows, she received a warning after further complaints. A petition with 600 signatures supports Sue, who argues that the council’s actions threaten countryside life. Council representatives stated that the crowing is persistent and unreasonable, prompting their intervention.
