Weird Chicken Sound

[GrantKazSpaz]

Recently one of our Black Austrolorp (I think that’s how you spell it) chickens has been making a very strange sound. I’m not sure what it is but I’ve never heard it before. I’m not sure if it is because of some underlying problem or if it is just part of it growing up. Is there any way to post a video on this site so that you could hear the sounds. Any information would be helpful. Thank you!

Recently one of our Black Austrolorp (I think that’s how you spell it) chicken has been making some weird noises. I don’t know if these are normal or if the could be from some underlying problem. Any information would be helpful. I’ll post a video of the sound below.

I'm sorry, your video is not showing. Upload to youtube or similar platform, then provide us a link.

Tell us more about your Black Australorp - is she eating/drinking, how old is she, do you notice any symptoms that would indicate that she may be sick?

She is acting perfectly normal. The sound is kind of like the sound made when playing a kazoo, but deeper in tone.

Agree with Wyorp Rock, you have to upload your video to YouTube or a similar site and then post the link here.
Is there a particular time she makes the noise? My hens make some pretty strange sounds when they are in the nest box.

Here’s the YouTube link.

She is about 11 weeks old

I see it now, she is beginning to develop her "adult voice". LOL Yes, they can sound like a Kazoo or goose, enjoy the youngster voice changes, they are entertaining

 

[GrantKazSpaz]

Ok great! Thanks or the help!

She's just 'happy talking'.

How old is your crooner and are you sure "she" is a she? If you post some pics here, a good full profile (including the legs) and a couple of head shots should give BYC's resident "gender gurus" enough info to tell. There are lots of 'em, and they're pretty good at deciphering all of the mixed clues some chickens throw.
