Why are my chickens so loud?

[Marshmallow1234]

So I got 3 hens. And every morning they make this super loud low grumbling noise especially the one with the large comb. I don’t know what they want... they also started laying eggs.

Are they all laying?
It could be an egg song.
Some hens are loud and some are quiet. It just depends on the personality of the chicken.

Only 2 of them are. The third one started to be very loud but didn’t lay yet

Depends on the bird, some are just loud. I have noticed they're louder right around when they lay an egg. Its like they want to tell the whole world they just laid an egg....

Yep, that's what chickens do. Normal behavior.

Well, I imagine it's similar to how people (at least in shows) go "ow, ow ow powwow OW ow ow...."

Even if I walk outside much later than the egg was laid my one chicken will announce it to me following me around for a good 5 minutes....silly chickens

Not silly - proud.

That's normal. One of my girls got extra loud before she laid.

Right when they go out of the coop they just start to be very loud
