Will parrot screeching disturb eggs/chicks?

[Mjismom]

Hello everyone! We are incubating eggs for the first time. I wanted to keep the incubator and brooder in a downstairs room because we can regulate the temperature well and it is safe from our dog. However, that room also houses our red headed Amazon parrot and he can get quite loud sometimes. Will his screeching disturb the eggs in the incubator or the baby chicks in the brooder? Thank you for your help!

No. It will get them used to a rooster crowing his brains out inside a coop at the butt crack of dawn...

Nope. Chickens aren't silent animals.

Thank you so much! Especially for the good laugh!

I have two macaw parrots in the room next to the incubators, and a pair of parakeets six feet from one of the brooders.

I've never had any issues, except I wish the macaws would learn to chirp like a chick instead of saying "Meow" to them. I always know when they start hatching as the macaws hear them and start meowing.

That’s so good to know! Thank you!
