Subject: Re: roosters 
Thank you for your reply, Heather. I do appreciate that changing by-laws would require a lot of 
work and I agree that It would be preferable to work with our neighbors for everyone's sake. 
There are simple solutions that would mitigate the early morning wake up calls. Bringing the 
roosters in a dark, closed area from dusk to morning is an easy and inexpensive way to delay 
morning crowing.  I'll speak with my neighbor about it and hopefully his response will be 
positive. The other neighbor with a rooster(s) has been approached by yet another neighbor. The 
response was something to the effect that they are not that loud. Not very promising. Warm, 
sunny days are around the corner. Hopefully, now that the issue has been brought up rooster 
owners will realize that they do have an impact on others around them.   
 
Please feel free to share my initial email as well as this one.   Changing by-laws might be far too 
complicated when a win/win solution is very attainable. Roosters and early morning quiet can 
co-exist.  
 
Cheers,  
Suzanne
