Anti Barking Devices For Rooster Crowing

[Birdsong 82]

I don’t necessarily like experiments with the monkeys part but I see what you’re saying in there. That makes perfect sense.

I use the no crow collar and it works great. I still can hear him slightly. If he crowd at night I go and check on them because he isn't a big crower to begin with. I generally hear movement on the other side of the fence, so he is hearing it to and alerting me.

Put what on a dog???????

I'm only asking about using and anti barking device that hangs on a tree to control the crowing of a rooster.

Sorry I was not clear enough. (I added that info to the first post)

How does this thing work?

My hunt is over concerning an antibiotic barking device to stop a rooster from crowing. In a nut shell It did work to disrupt a crow. But I made some interesting observations and learned more about roosters in general.

To start the study I brought the roosters inside, kept them in a kiddy pool cage and then took advantage of sound bites from YouTube anytime they would crow. Every htz I could think of was at my disposal. For hours and days I waited to hit play. It was a long process but at the same time I enjoyed just watching them.

One morning as I sat by our roosters one started to stretch out his neck to crow and someone farted in the nearby bedroom. To my surprise the roosters neck went back down and he did not crow. What, really, a fart? So I headed to my child's room to get her fart machine to try again with that type of sound.

After many attempts I conclude that the noise has to come right at the exact moment, as he begins to stretch his neck out to crow. I tried other noises and they all worked, if they where sounded at just the right moment.

I took to the Internet to see why sound worked before a crow and not during. Come to find out when a rooster stretches his neck all the way, his ears close off partly to protect his own hearing from his own crow. I also found that all chickens of all ages regrow damaged ear hairs quickly (their ear hairs get damaged from a crow). So don't worry about your pullets, roos, and hens near a crowing rooster, they will be fine.

I want to thank everyone for their input on this matter.

So you never tried this device?

I did not need to. In the description it tells what htz the device has a range of. So i just looked those up and played them. I also looked at the htz at other devices and used those htz.

After finding out about their ears closing up a bit I even wonder now what they can hear when they are crowing.

Put your fingers in your ears and scream?
I wonder too about the effects of the decibel levels of crowing on the birds....geeeeezzz it's LOUD! The girls can be pretty damn loud too.

Roosters ears close during a Crow so I doubt they hear you or anything else.

I'd just cage them indoors till you move.

I have the same problem with my neighbor rooster crowing. Almost 3 year I am wakened up every morning at 4:00 am, this is especially annoying in summer when I ma opening my balcony door. I am planning to mount this frequency device in order to try to scare and silence the rooster. later in the morning the neighbors are releasing chickens to get out and than the rooster is silent walking around. I cannot try with rooster collar as my neighbors do not agree with that. There must be some device that can produce some freq. that will scare the rooster and will make him silent!?

On the other hand, there is believing that the rooster crowing is acting as shield against devils and bad energy in those early morning times called "death, silent moments"!
