This is a common sight in Phnom Penh—roosters kept in cages at people’s homes and bred for cockfighting. Illegal, of course, but that means nothing in Cambodia. Roosters are a common sight. Even worse, they are a common sound. Where I live, some rooster caged like these starts crowing at 4:00 AM. I have to keep my windows shut and I use a white-noise machine to block the noise.
