I have 2 barred rocks and 6 BO's and one of my barred rocks thinks it is a roo! It is so loud. Whenever I am out by the coop I am telling her to shush. It is really funny. The minute I open the doors at 7 am she runs out and starts squawking. The BO's are only 5 months but they still just peep.

All of my girls are loud and at times they can put the rooster to shame.

Here's a link that might help you choose your breed.

my ameraucanas are the quietest. My buff orpingtons are not particularly loud, but the black sex links have definitely been the loudest. I love the noise, though. If you have a somewhat soundproof coop where they lay their eggs that will help too. I've put noisy roosters in the barn to cut down on noise.

I am leaning toward buff orphintons, but maybe plymouth rock still deciding thanks for the response

We have red sex links. They are quiet most of the time. They do have their moments. They seem to be very quiet layers. Every day is a little bit different though.

So far, I only have one layer, and I was actually thinking about how I read that hens get all loud when they lay.

My one layer is an EE and she has laid me an egg everyday since a last Wednesday and never squawks. She lays in my garage and is very covert about it.
