Chickens are a staple in PR. They are everywhere. You will get used to it. They quite down a lot at night. But they are up with the sun.

Just came back from Culebra. Slept all night with windows open at Villa Fulladosa.

I don't think it is as bad as you are reading. I was disappointed myself that I didn't hear any of them crow for me the two mornings I was there.

Agree, Sorry I was thinking of Vieques. But even there it is not real bad.

I saw plenty of them on Culebra, they were just quieter this time!! LOL.

plumboy,

Do not miss Culebra because of roosters. Earplugs work very well, I always travel with them and they keep out the rooster noise. I forget the brand, but they are blue or yellow foam, purchased in a drug store.

I also love to hear the roosters on PR, but I use the earplugs if they bother me.

Thanks everyone. I do use earplugs, by the way (my favorite brand is Hearos - get it?). My partner snores, so I'm forced to wear them. But, he doesn't like them and won't wear them - so I was just a bit worried about whether or not he'd be continually woken up by the roosters. I don't want to get blamed for dragging him off to a noisy island! Going to Culebra is my idea, so I have to be careful!

But, I'm sure the rooster noise is worth the beauty of the island - this is what I'm counting on anyway.

Thanks again...
