Yes, I put mine in the garage every night. Our neighbors say they don't mind, but I honestly don't want to hear crowing every morning. I let the boys out anytime between 8-9am - by then all the neighbors are up & about. I also use no-crow collars. They don't stop but rather muffle the crows. All their other sounds are at full volume. Even so, the roos cannot be heard from more than 4 houses away. The roosters crow when I 1st put them out for about 5-10 min. After that we don't usually hear them. If I do, then I know to run out back & see what's going on. Usually a ruckus over a hawk, new lawnmower, or neighbor doing a home repair. I love my roos mostly for their hen protection. They work very well with each other. The chicks are just an added benefit.They are gorgeous! I have chicks coming in the mail on Wednesday, I'll have to post pics of them too. I am getting chocolate & chocolate cuckoo orps, and possibly some mottled bbs ones if there are any extras. I wish I could hatch from my own chickens, but I am not allowed to keep roosters here. Usually when I get one I don't end up keeping him long enough for him to father any chicks. I get tired of having to put him in the garage every night, haha!
