[Tome of Cocks] Cock Master

This thread made me do it - I swear!
Cock Master
"I was referring to my specialization with the powers of chickens - but I like what you're thinking!"
There are those who wish to command the mighty and powerful forces of the elements, calling down the very representations of fire, water and other primal energies in humanoid form. Others seek to enchain the masters of the Abyss or the Nine Hells, forcing them to do their bidding. Still others want to commune with the angelic hosts and convince them to assist them. And some just wanna flood the world with chickens. Go fucking figure.
Making a Cock Master
Charisma is an important stat for you, as it powers most of your class abilities. Given that you don't wear much armour, Dexterity wouldn't hurt either. Everyone loves Constitution, and so should you.
Notes
Whenever this class refers to any save DC, it is always calculated as 10 + 1/2 the cock master's character level + the cock master's Charisma modifier, unless noted otherwise.
If this class refers to mimicking a spell, it is mimicked with a caster level equal to the cock master's character level.

20: Ultimate Mastery of Cock
Weapon and armour proficiencies: A cock master is proficient with all simple weapons, the lasso, all picks (including exotic ones), all flails (including exotic ones) and the trident. A cock master is proficient with light armour, light shields and heavy shields.
Cock-Friend (Ex): From 1st level, a cock master gains the friendship and companionship of a cock chicken. This gives and gets all the benefits of a raven familiar, counting the cock master's character level as their class level for the purpose of familiar abilities.
Barrel of Cocks (Sp): Somewhere, there exists an extra-dimensional space shaped like a cylinder, filled with endless chickens. Every cock master learns how to call a chicken from this place, requiring a standard action. The chicken can understand the cock master, despite them not sharing a language, and giving it an order requires a swift action, which requires the chicken to hear the cock master. Chickens aren't particularly clever, but can be given simple orders.
A cock master can have one such chicken in existence at any one time per class level. The chickens last 10 minutes, and then vanish. This is considered a [Summon] effect.
Cock-Puncher (Ex): A cock master knows exactly how to strike a chicken to make it explode into a gooey mess. With careful restraint, this exploding can be delayed by 1 round. Punching a chicken in this manner requires a move action, and the chicken to be punched must be within the cock master's natural reach.
The attack hits any chicken automatically. The cock master can either delay the chicken exploding (as described above), or have it explode immediately. Regardless, when a chicken so punched explodes, it creates a 10ft-radius blast, dealing 1d6 damage per level. A successful Reflex save halves this damage. The cock master is always immune to the damage dealt by exploding chickens (whether their own or those of another cock master).
It should be obvious, but it's worth stating anyway - any chicken that explodes in this way is dead. It can't be raised by anything weaker than true resurrection.
A cock master can have up to 1 chicken affected by Cock-Puncher in existence at a time. This improves to 2 chickens at 3rd character level, and an unlimited number at 5th level.
Cockmongler (Sp): Starting at 2nd level, a cock master learns to make a really creepy face. This requires a standard action, and has the same effect as cause fear.
At 3rd class level, this improves to mimicking scare. At 7th class level, this improves again to mimicking fear.
Mastery of Cocks (Ex): 2nd level cock masters are extremely attuned to chickens, and other similar birds (such as guinea fowl, quail, turkey, etc). This gives them a druid's wild empathy, except it only works on chickens and similar birds. They also get a +3 competence bonus on all skill checks related to chickens and similar birds.
Angel/Demon Cock: At 3rd level, if a cock master summons an ordinary chicken with their Barrel of Cocks ability, they can choose to make it a celestial chicken or fiendish chicken.
If a celestial chicken is subject to the Cock-Puncher ability, its explosion dazzles anyone it deals damage to, while a fiendish chicken that is subject to the Cock-Puncher ability has its explosion force a DC 15 Reflex save or set anyone affected on fire.
Cock Revitalization (Sp): Due to their connection to chickens, a 3rd level cock master can heal others with the power of the cock chicken. 3/day, the cock master can mimic either cure serious wounds or mass cure light wounds (each can be used 3/day).
Gifts from the Cock (Su): From 4th level, a cock master can conjure up real, wholesome chicken eggs, causing one to appear in their hand as a standard action. Apart from being tasty and nutritious, these can be thrown as part of the action that was used to create them, with a range of Medium (calculated as if for a spell with a caster level equal to the cock master's character level) and requiring a ranged touch attack. If the egg hits, it breaks, dealing 1d6 damage per character level. Additionally, because of the (literal) egg on the target's face, for the next hour, everyone they meet will have their reaction to the target be one step worse (to a minimum of unfriendly) regardless of what they do to improve it. Multiple eggs don't stack.
This is considered a [Creation] effect.
Tasty Cocks: At 4th level, a cock master that summons an ordinary chicken using Barrel of Cocks treats it as a [Calling], rather than a summoning effect. Additionally, if the chicken is butchered (rather than killed in combat, exploded using Cock-Puncher, drowned in lava, etc), it doesn't vanish, and thus, can be eaten. Delicious!
Additionally, anyone that eats a meal prepared using either a Barrel of Cocks-summoned chicken, or eggs from the Gifts of the Cock ability, will have their disposition towards the cock master raised by one level (to a maximum of helpful). Who knows, it might get the cock master some cock. If you know what I'm saying. For this to work, the ingredient must be a central feature of the dish - think Iron Chef here.
Riding the Cock (Ex): At 5th level, a cock master's chicken familiar grows enormously in size, becoming a dire chicken. It still keeps its familiar bonuses, and it can be used as a mount if you're so inclined.
Bigger Cocks: 5th level cock masters can summon dire chickens with their Barrel of Cocks ability. Summoning one of these is considered the same as summoning 4 ordinary chickens.
If Cock-Punch is used on one of these chickens, the explosion forces everyone dealt damage by it to become slowed for 1d4 rounds. A successful Fort save reduces this to 1 round.
Cock-Rustler: A 6th-level cock master is famous in the world of cock, and attracts other cock-loving and cock-related professionals to their fold - usually by 'stealing them away'. They gain followers (as if from the Leadership feat), except that all their followers must be one of the following: chickens (or birds that resemble them), professionals which work with chickens (like butchers, people who make down pillows, chicken farmers etc), or professionals that work with 'the other cock' (who are a bit confused).
House of Cock: A 6th level cock master gets himself a house on chicken legs - just like Baba Yaga. It's located somewhere in the woods on the home plane of the cock master. Its chicken legs allow it to move around as if it had a speed of 30ft. It can accommodate 10 people comfortably inside it.
Riding the Even Bigger Cock (Ex): At 9th level, a cock master's chicken familiar grows even bigger, gaining the same statistics as an achaierai, except instead of its bite attack, it gains a peck attack with the same modifiers, that deals piercing damage. It still keeps its familiar bonuses, and it can be used as a mount if you're so inclined.
Even Bigger Cocks: 9th level cock masters can summon even bigger chickens with their Barrel of Cocks ability. These have the same statistics as an achaierai, except instead of their bite attack, they gains a peck attack with the same modifiers, that deals piercing damage. Summoning one of these is considered the same as summoning 8 ordinary chickens.
If Cock-Punch is used on one of these chickens, the explosion forces everyone dealt damage by it to become stunned for 1d4 rounds. A successful Fort save negates this.
Battered Cock (Sp): By spending an hour with some cheap ingredients and a chicken they kill, a 10th level cock master can create a portion of a chicken dish so good, it revives the dead - literally! Anyone who is 'fed' some of this chicken dish is affected as if by raise dead (but they have to 'eat' the whole portion!). Everyone else simply treats this as either break enchantment or heal (the eater's choice). Eating this dish requires a standard action (as is 'feeding' it to a corpse). A cock master can only make one portion of this dish each day per point of Charisma modifier. If your Charisma modifier changes, the change has to last 24 hours in order for it to change the number of uses of this ability.
Ultimate Mastery of Cock (Ex): At 20th level, everyone else wins DnD, but not so for the cock master. Instead, all chickens, professionals related to chickens, and professionals related to 'the other cock' (see the Cock-Rustler ability for a description of each of these) have a fanatical disposition toward the cock master, which can never be reduced in any way.
This isn't quite finished yet - I welcome suggestions, submissions and critique.
