Well, I have to say the collar does lower the cock a doodle doing, but he stillnis fairly loud and sounds like a robot chicken!

I'm new to BYC and surfing the forums for help with two roosters. We purchased four bantams from a local farm, one bantam passed the second day we had him, two of the bantams have turned out to be roosters, so we only have one hen. The Fleuer De Uccle Rooster is loud, we bought a No Crow Collar for him, which helps lower the volume by maybe 30%. The other rooster just started crowing and hasn't quite found his lungs yet. We have tried reaching the owner of the farm that we bought these from as he said he would help us find homes for them if they turned out to be roosters. Well, he doesn't seem to text back or call back or email back. At this point we have placed an ad on craigslist with the chicken coop, the two roosters and the one hen for $200. We do not want them to go to anyone that does not have farming intentions for them. As backwards as it sounds, I've also tried to find someone to process them but have been striking out there as well. No one processes chickens near the DFW area.
Any suggestions, any advice, I'm all ears. My post probably sounds whiney, but we live in the burbs and want to do to the right thing by all.
Thanks,
