Lizzie50 Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Hi all - what noise do chickens make in the morning Strange question but last couple of mornings there has been a strange noise coming from the coop - almost like a cock a doodle do before the cock a doodle!

Chucky Mama Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 It is quite normal, they can make a right old racket sometimes Mine go through phases. I keep mine shut in rather than letting them have access to the run when they wake up which keeps them quieter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 One of my hens does the odd crow of a morning.... she soon stops if I squirt her with water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batcatz Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Mine woke me up singing the egg song this morning. It starts off with a noise like a crow, then goes sing songy. They make all different noises for different things. One of mine makes a whine sound if I walk past the run and don't let her out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoxy Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Olive my gorgeous new girl makes a noise like a duck...I had read about this before...but now I know chickens that sound like ducks do exist My girls make lots of different noises...Clara screeches when she is on the nest if any other hen gets too close...all of them squawk and of course some of them cluck after laying an egg...love it...not sure my neighbours do...but so far no complaints Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Bella cock-a-doodle-dos in the morning. She also lays eggs. Go figure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
