This is approach I followed, but had it planned before ordinances became an actual issue.Sell your house and buy a place in the country....you know you've been wanting to raise lots of chickens, right?
Do your parents have any concerns with trying to keep him even though roosters are not allowed?Well I definitely have a cockerel on my hands, and I live in the suburbs. Has anyone hid a rooster before? And how did you do it?
Yes that is what I meantHave a link?
Never heard of a shock collar for a rooster.
Maybe you're confusing no crow collars as shock collars?
IMO restricting their air flow is cruel enough I can't image anyone thinking shocking them is a fiesable idea.
jeez I didn't know that! Good to knowIMO, no crow collars are inhumane. There have been a number of posts regarding roos who have been killed while wearing one. They must be checked frequently, the fit must be precise, and they must be continually adjusted to allow for growth of the bird. There is a warning on the instructions about not allowing the bird to eat large diameter items while wearing the collar. I believe they even go so far as to recommend that roos wearing a collar be placed on crumble feed instead of pellets. Any one ever watched a flock of chickens fight over a mouse, a frog or other delectable morsel of mobile meat? I can only imagine the risk to a roo if he tries to hoover a frog while wearing a no crow collar.
If I could not keep a roo and allow him to live like God designed him to live, I would rehome him, or humanely euthanize him. Then, I'd have a wonderful chicken stew.
