He would stretch his neck way up and then crow out. |
I took a video:
You can see that he almost appears to crow from his toes out!
After I took it, I played it back... he was obviously perturbed by a rooster crowing in his area... he had been crowing about every 30 seconds, and after hearing himself, he stopped crowing! Carl said that he wasn't aware of what he sounded like and once he heard himself didn't want to crow anymore. I was afraid that we had "broken the rooster". But... he has recovered and is crowing again now!
Last night, Regina collected 20 eggs! From 36 chickens, so there is still room for improvement... |
Carl gives a lecture to the chickens every few days, reminding them that egg production isn't the only potential "employment" for them... I'm sure that is helping to improve egg production! |
