Is there a way to stop a hen from crabing all of the time besides culling? I have one that is constantly squawking. It drives me crazy.

Some chickens are just more vocal than others. If it bothers you that much, you might do yourself and the hen a favor by finding her a new home where she can squawk to her heart's content.

She free ranges all day, so not in a coop. The problem is that she does it while congregating with the others under my front porch (which I have no problem with) and I have to listen to that for unending periods.

If it keeps up that's what I'll have to do. She seriously impacts my enjoyment of this place in a bad way. I didn't get chickens to be miserable.

I have and maybe I will someday, but they love to free range in the front yard and she does it there too with the same effect on me. As long as they're quiet I don't care if they hang out under the porch. It's a safe place close to where they free range and it gives them shelter when it rains.
