I have a chicken that makes a lot of noise in the morning while one of the other is laying an egg. She will stand out in the run yelling until the other comes out. Any ideas on how to keep her quiet? My neighbors are not going to be patient for long if this keeps up:) I have nesting boxes in the house and the loud chicken can see the other, so it's not like she should be upset that the other is missing.
 
Chickens can be loud, even the females.
What you are likely hearing is the 'egg song',
the bird that lays sings it and others often join in.
It's completely normal chicken behavior.
Only way to really stop the noise in your yard is it get rid of the chickens.
