Talk to neighbor about noisy rooster
POSTED: Tuesday, May 11, 2010
QUESTION: My neighbor has a noisy rooster. Who do I call?
ANSWER: When crowing continues for 10 continuous minutes or intermittently for 30 minutes, it is a violation of the animal nuisance law as is keeping more than two chickens in a residential area. If you are having a problem with a neighbor's roosters, try talking to your neighbor first. If the noise problem recurs, you need to contact Royo's Farming at 841-2384. Another resource for resolving a dispute is The Mediation Center of the Pacific at 521-6767.
