Crowing cockerels

Is there a certain breed of cockerel that dosent crow as much as another breed?
I seem to think that the smaller bantam breeds make the most noise?
Or is there a breed that dosent crow hardly at all>?

I've never known a cockerel that doesn't crow, but don't think there's a particular breed that crows less than other John,

You may be better of sticking to hens, especially if you have near neighbours.

Yes i am aunt sally i have a flock of beautiful Rhode Island Reds , i wouldnt mind hatching some pure Rhrs and cross sussex after being offered to home a cockerel.
This question is just out of curiousity really. Im asking this question after i read somthing about certain breeds crowing more or less than others.
