I've had chickens for several years. For some reason this spring they are loud. It just started this past week when it warmed up outside.
Not just a little loud. I'm talking constant screaming, bawking, dolphin noises. I can hear it in my house with the doors and windows closed. It's so incredibly annoying, and they will not stop! I live in a suburb. It's only a matter of time before someone complains.
They aren't scared of anything, that's not why they're making so much noise. It's like the egg song times a million. All 30 of them at once, over and over all day.
They woke me up this morning at 6:30 making noise. Even my female duck was honk-quacking at the top of her lungs. (They were all still cooped.) I'm sure they woke up the neighbors too.
This is a video of my ducks mating in their pool, but in the background you can hear a couple of the chickens making some of their extremely loud non-stop noises.
They have never, ever made this much non-stop noise before. I don't know what to do! Help! I'm sure my neighbors are going to be placing complaints any second.
I can distract them with treats, but they just start up again as soon as they finish eating...
I want to cry. I can't believe they are so loud. I have the windows and doors closed, their coop is pretty far from my back door, and I can still hear them loud and clear right now. My head hurts.
