As someone who raised chickens: they could care more about family ties.

Of course there will be differences between breeds and individuals but some things I witnessed:

  • roosters, brothers by blood, fighting to the death
  • chickens stealing eggs from each other
  • chickens eating their own eggs (animals with good feed, grass and oister shells to peck on, fully available)
  • younger chickens ganging up on the matriarch
  • chickens killing their own chicks with no need to worry for lack of resources

Chickens are not gentle. In great enough numbers, chickens will even attack their predator. The birds can evaluate risk/success odds.

Again, there are more tame breeds and less tame ones. Some are the spawn of the deep pits where nightmares fester and grow.

I've got a mug from a town I used to live in. It's a rooster with the name "Shitty Larry" written across it. He was a local celeb. A rooster so badly behaved he had to be rehomed, and the people who adopted him created a whole lifestyle around dealing with his "antics".

As I was leaving, Fucking Frank was also coming into the spotlight.

They're assholes. But they taste good.

My grandmother raised chickens and there was rooster that used to harass my mother and her siblings and they hated the rooster. Apparently one day the rooster pecked at my grandmother's leg and then they had rooster stew for dinner. Point of the story is that roosters are assholes.
