    Friends of my wife have chickens they raised from chicks. Only it’s very hard to sex chicks and three of them grew up to be roosters. They eventually found someone out in the deep countryside who was willing to take them in as pets instead of chicken dinners. Until that time (which took nearly a year), they relied on anti-crow collars they found on Amazon - which seemed to half-strangle the roosters but didn’t do much to discourage noise.

    My wife hates that I still refer to them as the rooster gimps.
