That sounds like angry hen sound! She’s probably getting cranky/agitated having an egg about to pop out and find just the right spot. It’s a normal sound, whatever it is. Some will ‘grump’ more than others!

Same with mine! So annoyingMy silkie just started laying this week and does this too. It only happens right before she lays and then quiet in the nest box. No egg song either after the egg is laid, just this same screech.
I can try to see what I can do!Made me chuckle.
Not a bad or unusual sound.
Not nearly as loud as the screamers I've had.
Might want to stabilize the nests so they don't wobble, or tip over, when they jump up onto the side.
