Chortle Chook Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Does anyone own a cockerel with a full, nice crow? My Silkie, Dill, it has to be said, does not have a very nice crow. It is not loud so that is not much of a problem, but it never gets to a full cock-a-doodle-doo. The 'doodle-doo' always gets missed off so it sounds sort of strangled. Am I right in thinking that some cockerel breeds have better crows than others? If so, which ones? One day, (when little Dill passes on) I'd love one that does the real thing.

Redwing Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Yes they do vary tremendously My Wyandottes have a nice crow, low for their size, my Pekin cockerel screeches but does do a full crow I think it varies bird to bird too though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daphne Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 My LF orpington has a very loud, very full, crow. I'm never sure if this is a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallyChook Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 my croad langshan is very flat - he does the syllabuls but it sounds totally out of tune! i have silkies and polands who both do full crows but are a little grating on the ears!
