Rhode Island Red

[Clems Girls]

Hi,
Every time my Rhode Island Red lays an egg she makes a lot of noise while laying and then keep on being loud for another minute after getting out of the nesting box.
It doesnt bother me, its actually quite useful knowing when there's an egg,

just want to know why she does it?
is she ok?
What's it called if it has a name?

She's doing the egg song! Some hens do it before they lay, or after...or when someone else is laying! It's a fun one, and totally normal.
