We have an (illegal) rooster who is getting too loud. I have seen some rooster rings (I would use the other term but it does not pass the porno filter lol) that are like a necklace that don't allow them to get the full volume to their crows.
Has anyone any experience is using them? Or have any suggestions in how to get roosters to crow less or quieter? A friend of mine who grew up in El Salvador said they used to slip a thin knife in to pop the air bladder - not sure I am up for that. But a rooster necklace? Yep.

Great questions! We keep the rooster mainly for flock protection (we have had bears, mountain lions, fox, racoon in the yard, to name a few - and that is just this year so far!)
He crows at all times... I make sure to keep my neighbors happy and ask many many times if he bothers them, and we are good on that front. But he is loud! I have read conflicting opinions of the rooster collars, so thought I would ask permies folks for info!
