    Crowing hen- advice needed on options

    Hello I have a 10-11 month old Faverolles 'Tiramisu' and she crows! But it needs to stop/reduce as we live in urban area. Pretty sure its because there is no rooster.

    Very lethargic young rooster, possible sour crop?

    @Tonyroo It has been very warm, 26 deg C+ for a number of days, but not too humid. We live in a slightly elevated area so only humid after rain. Are you thinking heat stress?
