Hello all!
I'm a first time chicken owner, and I'm trying to wean them off of having a light on at night. I had a small nightlight on for them, but I don't think they could see by it at all. They starting making a sort of whining sound, and wouldn't calm down until I sat on the ground and held them in my lap with a towel over them, like a mother hens wing.
Then my Barred Rock started making a trilling sound. They've done this now and then before, but not this loud. Can anyone translate these sounds for me? I'm assuming the whining sound is either a 'I'm scared' sound or a 'Where are you?' sound to locate the rest of the flock
