Keeping a rooster quiet

[mattow]

Has anybody tried a cat collar on a rooster to quite him down a little purchased two hamburg hens then one decided he was a boy oohhhhh noooooooo I love him but the neighbours aren't as happy with him. Hopefully I won't have to re locate my little buddy

I've personally not heard of doing that - not sure how or why it would work. You might post your question in the link below - maybe someone there can give you some advice. You also might do a search in BYC search bar - type in "noisy" or "loud" and "rooster" and see what come up. Good luck to you!

Hi and welcome to BYC from northern Michigan

- it is very hard to keep a rooster quiet ( I would even say impossible)

Keep him in the house with you...
