Well, yeah, certainly, but that is not the thread title.
Potential Enforcement of a restriction was more topical
My thread title was my opinion. Unless I'm on the outer border of a development, my HOA can protect me from issues like this. That's a good thing, and when I go to sell my property, I don't have to worry about decreased value due to noise issues.

Investor I know has a tenant who raises chickens in Raleigh, just outside 440.
Multiple roosters.
He breeds and sells them for a heckuva price.
Yeah. They crow....

If you watch the video it looks like they're in separate cages.
I thought of c*ckfighting too, but then wondered if maybe these were rescue roosters. As Prumio mentioned roosters are usually culled from egg producing hens so they don't fight. You only want one rooster to protect his harem of hens. And if you don't want fertilized eggs you might not even want one. I often see keepers of backyard chickens posting about 1 "really sweet" rooster they need to give away (it's inevitably "really sweet") and they would like someone to keep him as a pet. Maybe these folks take those roosters? Dunno.

I saw this on the news last night and at the end the reporter said "the [homeowners] are thinking of selling and are worried that this issue might affect their property values." I NEVER understand why people like this think GOING TO THE NEWS will help that issue!
I would counter that the downside of HOA's (and there are many) is that it focuses on things that benefit a majority vote but often fail to work for the individual.
I offer as evidence this snippet from a relevant episode of SpongeBob ( click here to view)

Yeah I agree. I think it's likely just a last ditch effort to get people on their side. I'm sure it's an incredibly frustrating situation to be in. It's unfortunate that some people don't respect their own neighbors.

It's not explicitly stated but it sounds as though the adjacent property is zoned Agricultural, got that from the statement that there is no limit to the number of farm animals allowed on the property, so they really don't have a leg to stand on.
They moved in then later somebody bought the parcel and is using it for its zoned purpose. The people could have started a hog farm or be raising cattle the way it sounds. Or what they are doing, raising chickens.
For those of you suggesting that accidently turning a dog loose in the chickens would solve the problem need to look at your checkbook. In most states a dog's owner is responsible for the damage done to livestock by their pet to include actual damages as well as loss of income if the livestock is being sold or otherwise producing a cash product (for example, eggs). You might also lose the dog to projectile based lead poisoning, which is also typically a legal response.
