Does your SLW honk?

[BlossomSilkies]

I have a SLW pullet and rather than cluck, or bock, she sort of honks, like a duck or goose. Is this common for the breed or is she more special needs than I thought? (she is a slight crossbeak as well)

None of my SLWs honk.

All of mine did, very loudly! I posted on here and came to the general conclusion that it is probably a warning honk.

How old is she? They can have a slight honking sound when young, like many young pullets before laying, but in general no, adults don't honk as far as I know.

She is about 7 months. She's small, although I'm not that familiar with the breed, and she hasn't started laying yet. She makes the honking noise when she is just clucking around the coop, not in a panic or anything. It's just her normal sound.
