Can a rooster collar work on a hen?

[Consultree]

My hen who is just starting to lay has also begun to crow. She is crowing about 5 times when she gets out of the coop and into the yard. My question is will a rooster collar work on her? Can’t have crowing as per ordinance.

I would love to hear her - can you get a video of her crowing?
For video, upload to youtube and provide a link.

I can't say whether it would work on a hen or not - I've never used one. Likely it would lessen the volume of her noise making.
I'm not a fan of placing collars on roosters or hens.

Now. Your ordinance - does it say "crowing" or "rooster crowing"?

Crowing.
As for video I will try. I fitted her with it this morning and made sure she was okay with it. She did not seem to care after about 10 seconds of head shaking.

I hope it works for you and all goes well!

How old is this bird?

Did it stop her crowing?

 

[Consultree]

She is 6 months old and just started laying.
No it did not stop her crowing

We had a hen crowing before the roosters kicked in. She seems to have stopped. But who could hear her over them.

I have never had a hen "crow." Is this actual crowing like the sound of a rooster? Or is this the "im so proud of myself for laying an egg, everyone! I layed an egg! Come look at my awesome egg!" announcement?

That is really odd of a laying hen to start to crow, and I’m sure a rooster collar will work on your hen

Was wondering the same, especially for a 6mo pullet that just started to lay.
I have had an older hen(2-3yo) crow for a few months while on winter break.
