I think I got 3 roosters and I need help so they don't crow in the morning or i have to get rid them
 
Roosters crow at any time of day (even at 4:30 am if they hear a sound) as they are protectors.

Some people do this: put them in a cage inside a garage at night with a dark curtain over the cage (but so he can get air of course). He will still crow though.

Insulating the coop is good but chickens need so much ventilation that the sound will come out.

Honestly if you can't have roosters you would be best to sell them off. But make sure they are roos first! They can fool you and you think you have boys but they may be girls if it isn't obvious!

I have read about crow collars being sold on Etsy and such but I have not ever tried them so I don't know if they are any good or comfortable for the rooster.

Hopefully this helps you- If it were me I would sell them if they end up being boys. They will crow in the morning- that is what they do.
 
it dose thank you i might put the roosters in the basement and i dont know what i have yet all i know is half is brown and half are yellowish white and they are only 2 and a half weeks so it will be awhile till i know for sure

because when i bought them they said it was mixed and i think i have to make sure but they wont call me back
 
If it said mixed, you could well have roosters, but don't panic until you know for sure. I don't know if they have any way of telling you what you got. By buying mixed chicks, you are always taking a chance on getting roosters. In the future, you may want to look into getting pullets only.
