The Feral Chicken Problem
Feral chickens and roosters are a well-established nuisance throughout South Florida. Over decades, escaped and abandoned domestic poultry have formed self-sustaining wild flocks in neighborhoods, HOA communities, and commercial corridors across Broward and Miami-Dade County. Left unmanaged, these flocks grow rapidly and become increasingly difficult to control.
Roosters are especially disruptive — crowing loudly before sunrise, acting aggressively toward residents and pets, and triggering HOA complaints and local code enforcement notices. Hens and mixed flocks cause property damage through digging, foraging, and droppings that accumulate on driveways, patios, pool decks, and vehicles.

Who We Help
Residential Homes
Feral chickens and roosters frequently invade yards, driveways, and porches in South Florida neighborhoods — especially in older residential areas where they have established themselves over time.
HOA Communities
Homeowners associations throughout Broward and Miami-Dade County deal with feral poultry nuisance situations regularly. We provide discreet, professional removal that keeps communities in compliance.
Commercial Properties
Restaurants, shopping centers, warehouses, and office parks frequently experience feral chicken issues. Droppings, noise, and aggressive behavior toward customers and employees are common complaints.
Apartment & Condo Communities
Multi-family properties and condominiums in both counties are frequent hotspots for feral poultry populations, particularly when flocks go unmanaged and continue to reproduce.
Roosters Crowing Before Sunrise?
Don’t wait for the flock to grow. The longer feral chickens and roosters are left on a property, the more established they become. Call Trap and Remove for fast, professional removal throughout Broward and Miami-Dade County.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are feral chickens and roosters protected in Florida?
Domestic chickens — including feral ones — are not native wildlife and are generally not protected under Florida wildlife law the way native birds are. However, handling and removal must comply with local ordinances, which vary by municipality. Trap and Remove manages this process in accordance with applicable regulations for your specific location in Broward or Miami-Dade County.
Why are there so many feral chickens in South Florida?
South Florida has a well-established feral chicken and rooster population that has grown over decades through escaped or released domestic birds. The warm climate, year-round food availability, and lack of natural predators in residential areas allow flocks to reproduce rapidly. Once a flock establishes itself in a neighborhood, the population can grow quickly without professional intervention.
Can I remove feral chickens myself?
Attempting to catch feral chickens or roosters yourself is difficult and can result in scratches, bites, and aggravated birds that scatter and return. Professional trapping is significantly more effective. Additionally, some municipalities have local ordinances about how poultry must be handled and relocated. Trap and Remove handles the entire process correctly and efficiently.
Do you serve all of Broward and Miami-Dade County?
Yes. We provide chicken and rooster removal throughout all municipalities and communities in Broward County and Miami-Dade County, Florida — including Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Pembroke Pines, Miramar, Coral Springs, Miami, Hialeah, Doral, Homestead, Kendall, Aventura, and all surrounding areas.
How do you remove feral chickens and roosters?
We use professional trapping methods to safely capture feral chickens, roosters, and hens from your property. The trapping approach depends on the size of the flock, the property type, and local regulations. We assess the situation first and then implement the most appropriate and effective removal strategy.
Will the chickens come back after removal?
After removal, we can provide recommendations to help deter future poultry from returning to your property — such as removing food sources, securing compost or pet food, and making the environment less hospitable. In high-density feral chicken areas, ongoing management may be the most effective long-term solution.
Do you remove roosters specifically?
Yes. Roosters are among the most disruptive feral poultry because of their early morning crowing and territorial aggression. We respond to rooster-specific removal requests throughout Broward and Miami-Dade County.
Do you handle large flock situations?
Yes. We handle removal situations ranging from a single problem bird to large established flocks. Larger flocks typically require multiple visits or an ongoing management plan. Contact us at (954) 608-4663 to discuss the situation at your property.
