Well, actually when determining dominance one rooster will overpower another rooster and they will mate. I have observed this in all the animals on my farm over the last 10 years regardless of species.
Roosters are the male chickens. Roosters are also known as a cockerel.

That's in-breeding, which is a bad thing. You need a mix for the offspring to remain healthy. Inbreeding is a well known cause for deformities and poor health
