Default Anyone know how to get rid of a rooster?

Apparently a rooster found his way into my suburban neighborhood, and apparently he really hates the sun. He yells at the sun for two hours every morning.

I don't mind the sun so much, but I hate that rooster. Anyone have any ideas how to get rid of it?

Poison. Otherwise a bait chicken might get him close enough to sneak up on him, but you're still going to have to play athlete and if he has his dewclaws, he'll scratch the $hit out of you. If you get a hold of him, twist his neck.

I'm still opting for poison, just don't tell anyone you're doing it, and watch out for neighborhood pets. They're a pain in the ass (the roosters and the loose pets both, I guess, but especially the roosters).

thanks for the heads-up on the claws thing. I did not know that. I thought I would only have to worry if someone attached knives to its wings.

Print out a bunch of copies of this and post around the neighborhood. He'll leave.

You could use this to block the sun. That way that Rooster gets to stay, and you get to sleep as late as you want.

It's a win-win
