Both my EE are very quiet but one of them will growl when she hears the neighbor's dog bark lol. It freaked me out when I heard it the first time. She was standing right next to me.

Those are nice looking hens. I bred them and never noticed them being any louder than other breeds. They are certainly very gentle. I never had any hens crowing either. Any chance you could record a video and upload it?

Out of curiosity, where did you get them?

My hens would scream bloody murder daily while performing there egg song and there alarm sound for predators was much louder then any of the other chickens I have had except maybe one production red hen i had a couple years ago

I got them from my local tractor supply. I tried to get video of the main one crowing this morning but right when she seen the camera she stopped and stared at me. I'm thinking she does it for attention maybe because she stops when I'm focused on her. One of the other two is more random here and there a few times a week and the third one has only crowed twice, but she just started last week so I dont know if that was just a random thing or if she is going to start crowing more regularly.

I have a friend who is going to come pick up my loudest one today (maybe the second loudest one also, but I cant decide if I'm ready to part with her) to see if that will help quiet things down.

My really loud one sounds like an alarm going off when she is looking for somewhere to lay her egg. She will go in an out of each nest box scraming out. It rings in your ears Lol

They have great color to be feed store chicks.

I know right!? I was surprised how nice their colors turned out. Only 2 of them have the really nice color.

They are really nice looking faverolles. The roosters look totally different than the hens so you just have noisy girls! One of mine will announce to the world that she's laid an egg but the other two are reasonably quiet. Maybe they will outgrow it?
