Yes I have noticed some alphas are mean. So far we have two alphas and one wannabe. Both alphas let everyone crow and the wannabe will fling himself on anyone who tries to crow. As for the crowing I wanted to update everyone and let y’all know they still do crow but I have found out that by putting a Roosting log next to the hens cage the Roos like to jump up and watch the hens for hours as well as constantly telling the Roos on the floor what’s going on on the other side. Keeps them busy for hoursRoosters have interesting pecking order. Its been recorded that the rooster to crow first in the morning is the 'alpha' of the roosters. other roosters to crow first are likely to be attacked by alpha.
By having their cages by bushes or plants to block out lights of passing cars or anything that they see a threat, they will crow when they see a threat, so make sure they wont see a threat and are likely to crow little or not at all at night. But crowing during the day, your outta luck. Sorry
At one point we had 5 roosters crowing all day. We actually enjoy the noise these days. It did take a few weeks to get used to. It will help if you could put the coop a few hundred feet from the house. No matter how many you have it will get annoying quick if they too close. They aren’t as loud as most people expect though. About the same volume as a dog and generally they don’t crow as often as dog barks.Thank you, the reason is that them crowing all day would be kinda nuts, but I’ll see how things go in the end

I need some help if you guys could please help me. Does anyone have any ideas how to make them not crow so much? Besides rooster collars and culling them if possible I would like to keep them. Does anyone know what’s to make them crow less?
Thank you so much and God bless
Yes. Not very effective to reduce crowing sounds. My boy didn’t seem to mind wearing it though. He was very patient as we tried a couple of collars to see how they work.Anyone ever try this collar?
