Silkie honks like a goose?

[VampKat]

I have a DNA sexed splash silkie and she honks. It's a quick little HONK! and I thought she was sneezing or had a respiratory infection. I treated with antibiotics and no change, so I started taking her out and checking her for anything, and she didn't honk at all. Apparently some silkies are just extra and honk as well as the normal clucking lol.

I am very new to chickens, have had mine about 4 months now. I only have 3, but my Black Sexlink and my Rhode Island Red have high pitched cute little birdie cheeps like I would expect, however, I have a 4-5 month old black Silkie that sounds like a goose. I was just curious if this is common or if it might signify a cold or something like that. Please please please dont tell me it means she is a he lol. I love my Chickiedoo and was just curious if this is maybe something common to silkies.

I have a speckled sussex that honks like a goose. She is a year old and has done it since she was a wee one. Her name is Lucy. We call her Lucy Goosey. I do have a black silkie as well as a brown one and a white one, but none honk.
