Five roosters and no hens No wonder the roosters are crowing all the time. Throw a few hens in with them and they will stop all that crowing.

Why would anyone want to just have roosters in the first place Roosters are only good for two things....fertilizing eggs and keeping predators away from the hens....that's it nothing else!

Take my hens away from me and I’d crow all the time too.

Has anyone ever been to Fitzgerald, Georgia? The Army Corps of Engineers let loose scads of chickens on the 1960's and the whole town is overrun with them now. They lay eggs all over the place, crow all hours of the day and night and create a general nuisance. I'd venture a guess there are quite a lot of Lakes Region hawks and falcons that vacation in Fitzgerald in the Winter.

By the way, I wonder if the eagles on winni know about the roosters in Roberts cove.

They don't seem to have this problem in Key West?
