As far as the noise, they make something called a no-crow collar. It is mesh or fabric collar that you put around your rooster's neck. It limits how far the can expand their neck when crowing. This cause lower volume or 'strangled' crow but does not stop them from making regular chook noises within the flock. Their are different versions, padded, decorated, and different sizes for bigger or smaller birds. You could try that as a last resort. Otherwise I would tell her to mind her own business. It never hurt anyone to get up at 7:30. Her daughter's visit is temporary but your rooster lives there.
