Hi everyone, this is my first year with roosters. They are Seramas and loud. I’ve tried to find homes but no success. So, I personally like rooster crows but I don’t know about my immediate neighbors. One has loud pom poms so not worried about them, but the others I am because my Roos crow literally ALL DAY LONG! 2 start at 5am!!! It’s still dark! What’s up with that?? Anyways. I have 3 Serama Roos and one hen. 5 full size chickens. I love them all but the noise level might be too much here in Aloha, Oregon. There are other roosters in my neighborhood but I don’t hear them crowing constantly. Mine are young though, hatched in August 2021.
Thoughts??

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
Where have you advertised them?
The crowing at 5 AM is because it's morning to them. Chickens can see the UV light come over the horizon that we cannot. Humans only see light in the visible spectrum.

Welcome from New Orleans @Chickie bee. They are probably attempting to assert their "manhood". as they get older they may quiet down some, however with that Roo to hen ratio I think you are in for some rooster fights and lots of crowing. I would keeping looking for homes and try to keep the ones you think will be best for your flock. Good Luck

Hello, you might try posting in your state thread or in the Buy-Sell-Trade forum to find homes for a couple of your boys.

I recently sold some loud young males who were crowing constantly. It was driving me nut. All of my other males are not big crowers they aren't bantams either. I would keep your best. We have a local farm swap and I take any birds I want to sell there and their are a lot of buyers that come through. You may want to try to re-home some through your local facebook or Craigslist or whatever, like your local feed stores. Good luck with your birds and have fun.
