I have 7 wonderful birds. One of my younger hens (Not laying yet) SCREAMS, literally, for several hours a day. This is a relatively new behavior. She's a blue copper maran, and none of my birds vocalizes like she does. Does anyone have ANY suggestions for quieting her down? My neighbors haven't complained yet, but I'd like to stop the behavior if possible.
 
Screams, like, "BAWKKKKBAWKKKKBAWKKK!!!" Like she's on a rant? Or like she's laughing? Unfortunately, it might just be her personality.
One long note, like "SQUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" She'll hold it for a solid 30 plus seconds.

I do know she's going to start laying soon. She's started squatting down in the mating pose when I walk toward her. Do you think she may stop or at least calm down when she starts laying?
