BUFF ORPINGTON CHICKENS LAID EGGS AT 21 WEEKS | NEST BOX | NO CROW ROOSTER

Whats up guys, just wanted to do a quick update on the buff orpington chickens. We finally got eggs from one chicken! The eggs started coming at the 21st week. I started noticing the hens making more and more noise in recent weeks and found out this is their egg song! The first egg was laid by the bamboo bush. The second time around I heard the egg song. I came out and put her in the coop and closed the door. This forced her to use the egg box we built. Since then she has been using the box.
This week the rooster started to crowing at 11 weeks. He does this at 5:00 AM to 5:15 AM. I tried the DIY no crow velcro band around his neck to see if I can keep it down. It did not work. I bought the expensive official no crow collar and that did not work either. The velcro loosens over time and you have to adjust daily. I came up with my own band and so far it is working. Let me know if you guys are interested in a specific video about it?

I always like having 1 rooster in a flock of hens. They keep everyone in line and protect them from predators. I don’t even mind the crowing.

Very nice snd congrats on the eggs...👍

[@user-qb3ni6bk1d]

You want to keep fresh straw or wood chips in your box to catch the deprecation or waste that comes from the chicken the straw or wood chips where does makes it easier for the cleanup

The rooster 🤣

[@riadchamtie]

Hi, I love your orpington flock videos and I am wondering if you would like to share how you made your own no crow collar. Cheers

[@prolificbreedaquatics]

It’s just simple Velcro

[@yudp238]

great video....btw what kind of velcro did you use?

[@prolificbreedaquatics]

Just regular 4 inch velcro and I cut to size. The velcro works but it loosens up over time for me

[@brendalollar7994]

That no crow collar killed our rooster after wearing it for over a month. It still felt loose after he died so not sure why but the can die wearing that collar so beware!!!

[@kl1958]

Have you noticed with broodiness with your orpingtons? Love your channel.

[@prolificbreedaquatics]

Yup over the last couple months I had two become broody and want to sit on the clutch of eggs

[@kl1958]

@@prolificbreedaquatics Ok My dad grew up on a farm and he always mentioned that.But...he always said they were the friendliest and tamest chicken around. Very calm. 75% of my grandmother's flock were Buff Orpingtons.

[@Kay0.3]

I hope the collar isn't too tight on him. sounds like such a terrible gargling noise... :(

[@prolificbreedaquatics]

It has a pinky finger space in between. He still comes to me and allows me to pet and adjust things. So I feel hes okay

[@Juana4ev]

With what did you make your own band for your Rooster? Thats a huge problem many having because of city restrictions over the noise. Interested in buying your version and the video on it (how far down should it be placed)

[@RyseBarbatos]

He said that it’s just velcro idk how tho.

[@myjunkmail007]

Any update? Did you ever get the roll away feature to work?

[@prolificbreedaquatics]

it works

[@garrycole9187]

Remember to give your neighbors eggs from time to time, that will give them something for dealing with the sounds.

[@prolificbreedaquatics]

Yup… already told them the got some coming. I got lucky … my neighbor says they love the sounds 😂 she said it reminds her of her grand parents. She also mentioned that the area we are living in was once farm land all around us many years ago

[@samwhite1345]

They are pretty quiet breed from what I hear

Which hatchery do you purchase your chicks from? Beautiful flock.

[@prolificbreedaquatics]

crackle hatchery

[@kl1958]

@@prolificbreedaquatics Ok Thanks

[@Jamworldtv]

Tell me about that crow band. I’m interested

[@prolificbreedaquatics]

it's just velcro. you have to adjust until it's just right but also dangerous since it can choke him too ...

[@jayzkissnazass]

I was just thinking about you

[@prolificbreedaquatics]

Hope you are well!

[@saraiyahortiz440]

When do you put the band around their foot age wise? What is the band?

[@prolificbreedaquatics]

it's just zip ties with charms. you can find on amazon I gave room so they can grow into it. I forgot at what age I did it

[@Jaishreerama423]

Can u plz tell that from where I can buy a pair of Orpington chicks in India lucknow

[@prolificbreedaquatics]

sorry I am not sure for india

[@angieguerrero9805]

Do you still have girls? Are they loud at night at all? Mine are 13 weeks and so far they are pretty quite.

[@prolificbreedaquatics]

I still have them. at night time you won’t hear anything at all

[@ScuffedSean]

Don't have a rooster if you're not going to let him crow

[@sylvieroy3751]

Poor rooster it’s bad what you did to him 😢he suffering like that pretty bad.

[@GeorgiasGarden]

Just had our first egg today. It was so small…

[@prolificbreedaquatics]

congrats! they get bigger over time

[@TraderAlifromCali]

Can you please tell me how you made the rooster no crow collar, I live in a neighborhood and I have a young rooster and I don’t want to get rid of him I’m very interested and what worked for you, thanks!

[@prolificbreedaquatics]

Just simple Velcro. You have to keep adjusting for size since he kept growing. Another option is to use the kids toys wrist slappers. U bend it so it’s a little loose and it stays on for a while. Right now I just have Velcro
