Help! I think my Rose may be a rooster.

Yep. He's a cockerel.

Thank you!

Cute cockerel.

Plan now, if he needs to leave your home. His crowing is going to get louder and more often.

Sadly, 'Rose' is a cockerel indeed. @Tonyroo gives good advice on a 'Plan B'.

Thank you, wondering if a collar may work?

I think a lot of members highly recommend not using no crow collars. They can be dangerous. Plus, the collars work by making it uncomfortable for them to crow, thats not something I personally would want to inflict on my rooster.

If I were you, I would grab a couple dozen eggs, and go talk to my neighbors. The reason roosters usually aren't allowed is because people complain. If your neighbors don't mind, (fresh eggs every now and then help ) than you can usually get away with keeping them. As long as no one complains theres usually no issues.
Good luck!
