Quiet Roosters

[chickenboy7c2d]

Are there any breeds that have quiet roosters? I can't have any loud chickens because I live in a built up area.

It differs with every roo.

I've had some VERY LOUD crowers.

A white crested blue polish.... LOUD
A Giant Partridge Cochin.... annoyingly loud
A Golden Cuckoo Maran.... extremely loud

a Blue Ameraucana... you could hardly hear him.
a Blue Wheaten Ameraucana... nice soft crow.

I have a little 11 week old French Black Copper Maran and he simply makes us laugh now when he tries to crow.

I've had RIR, white rock, easter egger roos; all loud. I now have a Salmon Faverolle, when he crows it sounds like he's got a frog in his throat. He's funny to listen to.

The blue wheaten/blue ameraucana mix rooster we have barely crows (very disappointing to my DH). It's pretty quiet, and maybe one or two sessions a day.
