Show off your roosters

[Miss Dottie]

Me too, love this thread and love all the (good) roosters!

Handsome boys there, very fancy!

So.... This might be a silly question, but do different breeds of roosters have different crows? Are there some that are louder than others? How about bantams? I know a lot of it has to do with the individual roo's personality on how much/loud they crow, but are larger chickens generally louder than the smaller ones? How about hens?

In the morning I can listen before daylight and know who is crowing all mine sound different

Yes same with mine I've thinned them down to two roosters and ones a cochin bantam and the others a partridge rock rooster the bantam has a higher pitched crow and the other has a longer deeper crow

My Sebright has kind of a high pitched, short crow. His son, a Sebright/Polish has a slightly deeper, longer crow. All my Polish hens have this wicked witch cackle throughout the day. Everyone else is pretty quiet so far, but they're still pretty young.

My husband is trying to get away with having a rooster. They're not allowed in our area, but the neighborhood is full of them anyway. He thinks that the smaller the rooster, the smaller the crow. I'm not so sure. Lol

Oh, yeah. I don't want to burst his bubble, but my little Sebright is the loudest in the neighborhood! LOL He *loves* the sound of his voice.
