Rooster issues

OK, so I am pulled from a deep sleep this morning by my husband yelling at a chicken through the window.  I guess this works as an alarm in the country.  For once, the rooster didn't wake me up (at 3 or 4am when he first starts crowing).

Here are a few ways you can effectively stop a rooster from waking you up in the morning:
1.  Move rooster's cage from underneath your bedroom window.
2.  Sell rooster.
3.  Give away rooster.
4.  Pay someone to take rooster.
5.  Kill and eat rooster.

Here are some slightly less effective tactics that my husband employed this morning:
1.  Curse rooster and all his descendents.
2.  Yell out window telling rooster to 'shut up'.
3.  Run outside and open rooster's cage and beat him with a stick.

Well, now the rooster's out and is chasing around the other loose rooster.  Yes, we have multiple roosters - both large and small.  One of Jason's coworkers had raised some meat chickens and he offered him three.  He thought that was a wonderful idea, so he brought them home where they had to be kept in separate cages so they didn't kill each other.  To be fair, Jason actually processed one of the birds and it wasn't too terrible, but I still had trouble eating it.  That was about two months ago and I keep hinting about giving away the other two, since we have three Bantam roosters (who crow very well, thank you) already.  Also, one of our adolescent chicks is a young rooster and a Barred Rock so I'm planning on putting him in with the big hens when he's older.  Ella Mae is raising a new brood of five chicks and, if I don't miss my guess, at least one of them will be male, also!  Does anybody need a rooster?
