I follow the rules as long as he isn't crowing a lot, or us loud. Thus guy has the most quiet crow! Only crows in the morning about 5 times, and the same in the evening. A sex link. I e talked with neighbors, thay don't breast him. I may be able to keep him for a while. They usually find their voice. :/ Then, I have a gal that has a farm and yard in chickens.
I had two boys at one time wth their separate girls but it was a crowing competition, constantly! For the sake of everyone’s sanity I rehomed one and kept just one for a while. The crowing did subside some but we got a bunch of new neighbors and before they started complaining I rehomed him too. It really was like a street exodus, out of 10 homes we got new neighbors in 6 of them in the space of a year. 
always get a kick out of saying that only 3/4 of a acre
