Why do chickens croak in the morning?

You must have heard that in old times people used to wake up early in the morning by hearing the crowing of the rooster.

Let's know the special reason behind this.

How does the biological clock work in the body of a chicken?

There is a biological clock in the body of a rooster, which is called "circadian rhythm". This biological clock signals its body to work in a 24-hour cycle. As soon as the morning time arrives and the mild sunlight starts spreading, this clock becomes active. This change signals the rooster to crow, and it starts crowing in its loud voice.

Light-sensitive eyes

The eyes of a rooster are very sensitive to light. When the first rays of the sun appear, the environment around it starts to become brighter little by little. The eyes of the rooster sense this change immediately and this signal triggers its brain to crow. In this way, the day begins with the sound of the rooster's crow as soon as the morning begins.

By crowing, the rooster tells the other roosters and birds around him that the day has begun. In a way, this can also be called the social behavior of the rooster. This method of his is a signal for other birds and animals to wake up.

Similarly, sometimes roosters also crow to attract the attention of female birds.
