No way, JJB. 
My neighbour had one and it was a nightmare. Didn't really worry me but neighbours down the road would ask me if t was mine as they knew I had chooks. It was the ones that didn't ask that concerned me as they probably blamed me anyway!!
I've told this story before - about the chicken that had been dumped in the woods. I spent several days winning its trust before I cold get close enough to grab it and bring it home. A beautiful white hen with fluffy legs - it was a Silkie. I really hoped it would lay eggs - but nothing. Never mind, she was beautiful and very strokeable.
After a week or two, she started to utter these strange croaks as if getting warmed up for a grand recital. Suddenly, early one morning,it found its voice - it was a cockerel!!
Sounded more like a run down clock in need of a good wind than the neighbour's full volume cockerel.
