Hi! This is my 1st post! ANY suggestions are welcome!!
My almost 2 yr old Buff Orpington was laying last year, Stopped to moult & decided to start crowing in February. She started laying in March, for the season, but only laid 2 eggs & they where both soft shelled. She hasn't laid any since...
This morning I was able to actually get videos of my little silver Sebright roo crowing his little heart out. I also noticed that a golden Sebright, who I thought was a hen, appeared to be crowing?! It sounded vastly different from the little silver who was the first to crow. Apparently I need...
I have 4 cockerels that range from 5-6 months of age (silkie, yokohama, cochin, and giant brahma) and not one of them has made more than a peep. I have kept them both with my hens and with only each other and they don't seem anywhere close to crowing. They are all very laid back and chill dudes...
Well, this is something I did not plan for. I've only raised CX in the past and have never had anyone crow before processing day. This morning, I go out to feed and water my nearly 6 week old Rainbow Rangers (Meyer Hatchery) and someone is trying to crow! It's that baby crow that isn't too loud...
Hi, I’m hoping someone can help me figure this out!! I’m looking to adopt another hen from my local shelter. This bird was listed as a hen on the website and they said was returned to the shelter for being a rooster with no other explanation. I went to go take a look at her/him and still can’t...
Hi folks!
My accidental rooster started crowing last week and it was super cute at first as he was learning. Now it’s developed into a full/blown very LOUD and FREQUENT crow. Like sometimes of day he’ll crow every few minutes!!!
We work from home and the coop is right below our bedroom & our...
So I have a male quail I know he’s male because I have vent sexed and he is exhibiting mating behaviors. Do some quail just never crow? I would think he would start before trying to mate right? Or do they start mating before crowing sometimes? The rest of my males crowed before they started...
I am freaking out.
I’ve had my doubts from the start, but I cannot own a rooster in my neighborhood.
Is this in fact a rooster?
17 week old “pullet” has been highly aggressive and mounting other hens. This morning has started full blown crowing.
I will attach some pics and hopefully a...
Ok so ummmm I don’t know how but my chick hatched less than a day ago and it’s making an unmistakable crow. Do they do this or is my chick special I’ll try and post a video later.
Hello everyone! Thanks for taking the time to read, I hope all is well for you and yours!
Our Dark Brahma rooster, Vegeta, is about 10 months old now. He has been crowing for several months but has always made some other weird noises too (almost like sneezing… it’s hard to describe, like a TCH...
Okay so this morning I was shocked at a sound I haven’t heard for months since my other cockerel died.
Crowing.
yup, Easter has started to crow. And just asking, but can you train a roster to not crow? Not because it’s annoying, but because we are in town and if people here u, well…..yeah...
Hi all. I am trying to understand how exactly a rooster crows but I’m running into contradictions.
… an intake of breath fills the air sac above the crop, this breath is used to crow, the more breath, the louder the crow?
I have no idea if the above is correct, but I do not believe this is...
My unknown gender chickens have finally started being noisy. I think it's crowing but it's really not like the standard that I have heard.
the chicken on the far right of the chair is the culprit. This is crowing right?
I have raised a female and male together and they’re now 6.7 weeks old. I can’t find anything online suggesting why the male is crowing already, it says they normally do this from 4/5 months or sometimes later. I was wondering if anyone would know why this is happening so young? Thank you
