Thanks, ya'll.
The chicken is loud. It's true. When she buk-KAWs, it is loud. She generally does this after she lays an egg, particularly if the retired hen then proceeds to sit on it. Potentially, the chicken does make noise for a while. When I am home, the noise is brief (<10 seconds). It's possible that when I'm not home, she makes noise for longer. So, I can see someone getting irritated by it.. but, it's in the middle of the afternoon. Whoever is complaining is someone who doesn't leave the house in the daytime... It's not like they are being disturbed from precious pre-work sleep. I don't mean to imply that working out of the home is not work, obviously it is - however, I strongly suspect the person is this quite old crabby lady who lives two doors down. We have been trying to figure out all day who it is based on some clues. The one bummer is that whoever it is knows how to spell our names, which are both unusual - which means that they have received a card or gift from us in the past.
Well, I am going to start writing the letter to the neighborhood. Sigh.
