Ebay has Rooster Crow Collars for sale as well as My Pet Chicken's No Crow Collar which you can also get from Amazon.

just a word of caution on using Crow collars. adjustment is critical too loose and they can crow too tight and they can starve.

I seem to remember someone making their own out of two strips.... I think that is a very good idea

I'll keep that warning in mind. I bought one for my little roo that I want to try to keep. I haven't had to use it yet though. He's the only one out of a clutch of ten roo's that didn't start crowing at 4 weeks old, 4 weeks ago.

I'm looking for fertile eggs to put under my broody batam Cochin. How many will fit under a small bantam. Also, does anyone close to Penasquitos have some fertile eggs that I can buy.

Good afternoon! I haven't been around in a loooong time, so hey! I'm looking for started pullets in the area as we have no way to raise chicks anymore. Open to breed, would prefer good layers/not broody. Thanks!!
