Crowing

[Martytherooster]

We have three roosters, and sometimes they will fight, but we break them up. But they have been crowing lately, and one of the roosters, will crow every 20 sec.

Do you know how I can stop this?

I just don't want the neighbors to get mad.

Thanks!

I hate to say it, but that's about it. Some roos crow WAAAAAAAAAYYYYYY more than others. Are your neighbors friendly? Would it be possible to just go talk to them in order to make sure the roo isn't being a nuisance? Are roosters allowed where you live? If they are, then maybe you simply don't want to worry about it

How do you know if roosters are allowed in my area?

Find your local chicken swap and take him for a ride to a brand new home. No matter how nice you think your neighbors are....it only takes one jerk to call animal control and you'll have to get rid of ALL your chickens. If you're illegal, you better rehome him fast!

In this case the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.

Is there a way to stop the crowing without killing him, or selling him?

nope.. sorry there is no shut up button that does not kill the bird. You will have to deal with it or rehome or cull.

I met a man who has several roosters in a very small backyard. He says he puts his roos into the garage at night and lets them out in the morning when the neighbors have gone to work.

He lives on a main street and the garage faces that street. It may work for you??
