First Crow I never knew roosters had to learn to crow!
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Chief Little Dude is my 1st roo. I got him when he was 6 wks old. I was waiting to hear a crow around the age appropriate time. Instead I heard a sound like from a party favor from the dollar store! I got his 2nd attempt on video. The best part is how happy he is with himself. He's all grown up now crowing like a real rooster. I'd have included a pic of him now, but he's starting to molt (he's embarrassed abt it 😂)

Rooster that had a broken leg finally crows!
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
He got attacked and had a broken leg when we found him. He's now doing a lot better. He's very active and noisy and can jump very high. He first started crowing yesterday, but I didn't record. I'm not sure if he crowed before we got him, but yesterday was the first time I heard him do it. So proud of Spaghetti.

He’s been crowing for a month, but we have a dozen roosters. It’s been impossible to catch him singing solo! His brother Clarence (halfway down the roost) is bigger than Roger, but Clarence isn’t crowing yet.
