Rooster crowing all the time

[Mrsdescalzo]

Hi all! I have an approx 5 month old rooster who crows all day. I have removed all other roosters from the flock and he now has 8 manageable ladies to care for. He is sweet and does his job but crows ALL day. Sometimes, 10-15 in a row. I have adjusted the timer for the automatic coop door since the crowing was starting at around 6:50-7am. This has helped us sleep. By 11am, the crowing reduces but I do allow them to free range for a couple of hours and once he is out on the property ( 4 acres) he continues to crow on and off all day. I’m sure my neighbors are less than impressed at this point. I know they are vocal for many reasons but it’s to the point I am considering rehoming. Open to suggestions or ideas!!

That's what roosters do, it's perfectly natural and there's no way to stop it.

So helpful. Thanks!

So helpful. Thanks!

I also know from many years of raising chickens and roosters that they do not always crow ALL day in excess. Sometimes it’s behavior, yes or maybe I am missing something. Looking for HELPFUL suggestions.

I was also thinking maybe he’s just young and finding his voice. The girls are not laying yet but any day.
