Why does this 5 week old chick chirp so much?

[Bookworm chick]

It started doing this about a week ago. It's not the softer peep-peep-peep sounds that the others make. It's more of a "calling for it's mother" sound like it was separated from her, which it's not. The only time it's not being annoying is when it's eating, drinking or sleeping. What gives with this mouthy chick?

Im not sure why but I happened to me with my EEs who are now 8 weeks. They did that constanty for 2 weeks... They don't do it much anymore though! I don't get it but its strange and makes me feel bad

I had three chicks with a broody mom, and one was constantly noisy. I called her my drama brahma! I think it's a personality issue (in my case anyway, because she still talks pretty constantly

)

Hahaha drama brahma!

Maybe it's like when human kids go through a mouthy stage?

I have one chick that does the same thing, but only when she knows i am near. She is the friendliest chick of that hatch and loves to be picked up, rubbed on the head, and sitting on my shoulder.
