This is a very sick thing to do to any animal. What the hell is wrong with people who mutilate animals just to control them? Roosters are meant to crow! Don't like it? Don't own a rooster!!
Sometime I truly dislike human beings. We are one sick race with our incessant need to control everything and every one even if it means pain and suffering! Ugh!
Sometimes I think human life should just end. We are not good.

You know what is really unfair is that mute swans are mute. Unlike their goose cousins, they just sit there and say nothing. Yet, somehow, mute swans cope. Similarly, roosters without their crow somehow cope. I lament the possibility of splitting my rooster's tongue, but I'd rather do that than get rid of him. Neutering a rooster is another way of shutting him up, but I think my rooster would rather be able to enjoy his harem of hens than to be able to crow about it.
Neutering and spaying is not the same as mutilation. That's a weak slope you're trying to use. I got a hysterectomy, I can deal with that better than if someone were to split my tongue on me.
I dont think you should even mention this sort of thing on this site its disgusting I know you said you wanted know wether it was a myth I dont know never heard of it there is a lot of members who really DO care for animal welfare so I wouldnt mention or ask things like that its also distastful

I raise chickens and I like them too much to consider eating them. I give my excess roosters away. The rooster I am keeping was chosen because he takes care of the hens, the hens eat first, he hunts for the hens, never attacks a hen and protects the hens and chicks from predators. If a hen gets injured he runs to her aid. Other roosters treat the hens as food competitors, underlings and in the way.

I think this a fairy story, I was told years ago if you split a crows` tounge it would talk. Same baloney I reckon.
To be honest I love the sound of roosters crowing it brings back memories of my childhood.
I would lay in bed and listen to the roosters crowing in turn one on our farm then one a couple of miles away then another, they always took their right time.
I thought it was magical and it also said "You have a whole new day to enjoy"
