Lots of people breed for fun / to earn prices at shows. Some people try to establish new breeds. For ornamental reasons, like the Sebright and Red Island Red in the past.I guess I'm in the minority here, but I not only think it would be possible, I think it would be relatively easy. You can make very large changes in a breed of animal or plant pretty quickly. I just can't see people doing it because it isn't economically feasible in the short term.
So why not breed a chicken that is famous for having a nice crow and good behaviour? Many people in suburban/urban neighborhoods who have chickens would love to buy such a rooster (I would).
Now I need to buy fertilised eggs from time to time. And the cockerels all need to go asa they start to crow loudly early in the morning.
