Get some guinea hens to drown out the noise? :thumbsup:

Seriously, I have never heard of a way.

Other than a 22LR, nope.

I agree with other posters. If you could do it, it probably would be cruel. (like taking away your manhood). Seriously, if you get rid of the rooster and get a hen you get free eggs.

Chicken (Rooster) Gumbo?

I have heard that if the rooster is in a confined space such that he can not lift his head, he will not crow.

I have no verification of this rumor.

I was worried that when i got my chicks they made a mistake i have 5 and two make a lot of noise almost like crowing like a rooster......but both are the americana/americundas and they just seem to crow at different parts of the day.
Our neighbor had a rooster, we heard it at our property man their voices can travel. Are there any silent rooster breeds? bet you would make a mint if you could breed one.

Take him to the vet to have his vocal cords cut or find a new home.
