Rhyme intended
Anyhow, it turns out my Silkie chicken that I took a chance hoping would end up a pullet... Did not get the memo.
Today, at 7:20am, I heard my first crow from my Silkie.
Long story short, I have two chickens (Cochin hen and now confirmed Silkie roo) and they're not too legal in my city and I live in a well suburban area. Roosters are definitely a no go if chickens aren't allowed. My neighbours definately would not appreciate a loud crow at 5/6am everyday and neither would I.
I feel bad because I definately don't want to separate the two because they grew up with only each other since 1 week old.
Does anyone know if a no crow collar, online-bought or self-made going to be enough to silence him or should I get to rehoming them now?
This sucks, I should have gotten a confirmed female chick instead of chancing it at a Silkie. I really threw myself in a pickle here.
