Joon, my Barred Rock chick is turning 12 weeks tomorrow, same as her Easter Egger buddy Munk. Well today I noticed a considerable difference in Joons voice! She is now BOK BOOOOKING! No more cheeeeeeping! I am so proud of my girl, and for the past week have been 'talking' to them both making the book boooook noise. Both girls perk up and go silent listening to me, but today Joon followed my example! Munk still cheeps, but I think with Joon's new noises Munk will change soon. I find the soft clucking so soothing too, and am happy my girl hit a 'part of puberty' if you will
