Do any of you that have chickens know why my young rooster crows all day and night? Not a lot but every so often.
I think he's horny. My wife thinks it's the feed.

I was staying with my niece for a few months last year, and she had just gotten young chicks.
When the rooster first started crowing, he crowed off and on all day, but then he settled down to just a morning crowing.
I think, when he first learned he could crow, that he was either practicing or just showing off.

However, that is just my personal opinion.

#1 reason for crowing, day or night.
Ours just started at night for a couple of nights, coinciding with Skunk odor at the same time.

I'm trying to talk my folks into allowing me to buy them a pair of very young donkey's for security reasons.

The rooster that got dropped off at my house many years ago that crowed every morning at 2:00 am might have been reacting to a light in a neighbor's house. If the neighbor got up every morning to go pee and turned on his bathroom light, the rooster would have been disturbed.
