These noises basically translate as: Hen - "HeyEverybodyGuessWhat, ILaidAn EGG!!!"
Rooster - "HeyEverybodyGuessWhat, MyWomanLaidAn EGG!"

My roosters also used to make a noise that gave me the creeps. I swear it sounded like a woman screaming in the far off distance. My brother visited and informed me that is the "Everything Is OK" song. They sing it the most in the evening. The boys want the girls to relax, lay an egg, and be ready to mate. Selfish things!

Makes you want to go out and check no one is hiding cigars around the coop! LOL



Check it out, my saffron crocus are blooming! I was so excited to see how quick they came up. I love saffron!

ChickensXOXO & beach livin'



Well.... went to Church tonight, got home 8:15 pm. Went to lock up & count. 1st time EVER.... locked up, missing 1 hen. My oldest Splash BLRW hen.

We searched & searched & re-counted and got flashlights and checked every nook & cranny.
So we are all praying that she is hiding somewhere on a nest.

My mom was home...and outside until 8pm. Plus our 12 dogs. She was working in the garden then cleaning up the porch/carport, within sight of the barn.
