I have an Favorelle Rooster who is not crowing. Should I be worried about this? I mean in once he has only done the Cockadoodledoo thing. However, it was so quiet you could not even hear it.

You are complaining he is not crowing! I think I would be rejoicing! The animals can be rather loud and obnoxious at times, but I think yours will probably crow when problems arise and he needs to take care of them.
I agree with the others on this one, people would give their right arm to have a crowless rooster. Hey, maybe you could start to breed them from him and sell them to other people, they would love buying a rooster that didn't kick up a fuss. Sometimes, if there's another rooster that is more dominant and crowing all the time, the other won't bother.
I, too, agree with what everyone else is saying. I personally would be very happy not having to wake up to that sound every single day, haha. If it goes on for a very long period of time you could always have a vet look at the rooster to see if it is OK. But, I think your rooster would show other signs if it was sick or something was wrong.
It's been awhile since I've lived anywhere with a rooster (over 30 years), but yes, sunrise seemed to be the time. Personally, listening to a rooster crow at 4am is not really on my To-do List anytime soon. If I had to be up at that time it would be different, but I don't so I think it would become rather annoying very quickly.
Somehow, be sad. it is because the rooster is not doing what he supposed to do. There maybe a problem on the part of the roosters health.
It's the first time that I heard of a rooster that doesn't crow! There has got to be a problem with it. Did you check it with the vet or something?
I wouldn't worry too much. I think in time your rooster will begin crowing on his own terms. By the way, how old is your rooster?
