Screaming Chickens, My Crazy Chickens love to Scream, The Funny Noises Chickens Make

[@ForsythiaHill]

With the greatest sadness, I need to report that our roo Jethro (featured in this video) has passed. He was treated with respect and kindness all his born days. He had it good with the girls. There was no sign of illness, he was ailing one evening and passed the next morning. The girls have been fine so it was not anything contagious. He was always a little delicate, catching colds when no one else did. Possibly because of his size, his little heart just finally gave out. Oh I miss Jethro, it is so quiet, I can't stand it.

[@amceations.3077]

If u know he lived a beautiful life and u helped him. Be happy now his peeking on a beautiful site... Remember animals are so pure and good bless them.

[@maryillinski3487]

So sorry about Jethro. He had a wonderful life I lnow.. When my pet rooster (Roosie) died it broke my heart. When we let him inside my parakeet rode around on his back.

[@ForsythiaHill]

Thank u so much, that's wonderful that your parakeet rode on your roo - how cute. I know u miss him. Roo's are special creatures.

[@keegansmom2008]

[@Amber43002]

That's really sad. I'm so sorry. We had to put our baby BR roo down last Sunday 😞😞😞

[@sonjaharris2313]

I love listening to my chickens, I bought a baby monitor just so I could see and hear them

[@ForsythiaHill]

I too have a baby monitor inside 1/2 of a cooler under our 2nd story back screened in porch. I got it to alert me inside (in the winter I can't hear them w the house all closed up) if a hawk is in the area. Chickens do make sounds to alert danger. I go running out if i hear anything strange! Also fun to just hear them inside :)

lmao i know this is old but this is EXACTLY how our chickens are. 10 hens, 10 boxes, they all take turns in the same box.

[@jiriwiesner]

That's why I have only one nest box. It can acommodate three hens. But they still tend to queue up even before that one.

[@julies5515]

Our Roo will join in when our girls sing the egg song and I remind him that he is not a chicken lol. The girls can get loud and proud though when they lay an egg. I would too.

[@lt34102]

The hens are all doing the Egg Song, it's not a conflict. The Roo joined in too. It's a ritual relating to laying.

[@elchapo91]

I like how its subtitled letting us know exactly what Rooster & hens keep clucking about

[@maryillinski3487]

Love the chickens. I use to help my neighbor with hers. As we approached the coops they always sounded like they were singing. Never forget those sweet sounds

[@thekat268]

When I put mine to bed at night, as they enter the run they make low tone noises, sort of like horns, completely different than the rest of the day.

[@Nedyah74]

When we first got our chickens we got 6 of them. We got them as chicks from a Tractor Supply store and took them home. As they grew, we found out that 2 of them were actually roosters, and because we live in a suburban neighborhood, we were forced to get rid of the roosters due to the rules of the neighborhood association. I hated to get rid of those 2 roosters not only because we loved them as our pets, but also because they were such great protectors of the hens from hawks. Yes, the roosters cock-a-doodle-doo'ed often, but if you ask me, the dogs in our neighborhood that constantly bark are far louder than our roosters ever were.

[@ForsythiaHill]

I think that's why no one has complained about our roo --- how could they with their barking dogs! We do have an ordinance here but hard to enforce and it never stops it anyway.

[@Spect8orSpecter]

Used to have a neighbor that had a rooster and chickens. I always loved hearing him crow. It's a unique sound in the suburbs. I think that the government in general would prefer us dependent on the local grocery stores for economic reasons. I believe that's a big part of why there are such laws.

[@ForsythiaHill]

Yes, dogs are much worse! At least chickens go to bed at sunset - my neighbors dogs would bark all weekend night and day as he would leave them in a pen all weekend. Complaining only makes pissed neighbors. Horrible situation.

[@ForsythiaHill]

I too always have loved that sound but my neighbors are very tolerant of my crazy GIRLS! ! I do live in the county which helps!

[@kevinfitzgerald8474]

Lol you are saying dogs make more noise then roosters. My neighbor's kid's scream like banshees on the trampoline. And I would put money on they would be the first ones that complain if I had a rooster

I went running after those roosters, in my bathrobe,. down the street, lol. I didn't wanna hurt them, just get them away from my window.

Observe @1:54 onward Jethro is "lying" to get the squabbling hens to come out, "Look look look, there's food here!" *pretends to scratch and eat Roosters will sometimes do this to get hens to come out of an area the rooster cannot fit into, if the hens have scattered too far while free ranging, or if the roo is just looking for "romance" and wants a hen to come closer.

[@rachelwharton4245]

At 1:52 when the rooster is making that softer, happier sound and pecking at the ground, he's trying to tell the hens that he found something nice to eat. I grew up with chickens and every time one of our roosters would make this noise, all the girls nearby would rush over and the rooster would be saving something to give to them and show them where it was on the ground so they could eat it. It was very sweet to watch :)

0:07 Why Did That Chicken Do A Butt Wag Before Jethro Crowed?

[@ForsythiaHill]

Vinnie, that was a butt wag. Tail is down, could be the hen was seeing Jethro as being dominate and wanting to mate OR they sometimes have their tail down when they need to go lay an egg. Either way, that was my sweet Iris who was THE DEAREST chicken ever.

[@thekat268]

[@Daystar311]

This was cute! I'm new to chickens since last year. The hens are all grown and laying now.They seem very happy and get lots of attention from my husband and I. I can't have a rooster because I live on the outskirts of the city, but not really rural. It's just the law here. My "ladies" make all kinds of fun noises. Only one hen is really noisy while laying. I checked her over really well and she's fine. The others don't do this. They all make a cooing, purring kinds of sounds when they see me! I love it! Sometimes they skwak over disagreements and they're really a lot of fun!

[@ForsythiaHill]

So happy you are treating your girls WELL! Better to not have a roo -- they really do wear out the girls but at least my Jethro is a nice roo and he may be able to fend off the hawks a little. My biggest worry are predators. The gang is locked up at night with a 2 door system and fenced in -- so far so good 7 years running. Chickens are FUN.

I was watching this with my hen and she absolutely loved the noises and she was pecking on the screen lol

[@bobbyfrancis8957]

At 00:10, no, your Jethro isn't loud enough; we had a Plymouth Rock rooster named Alex who was much bigger, at least twice the size as Jethro and when he crowed he sounded like a lion roaring; in HIS yard he would NOT allow any roosters to fight and he was a gentleman to all the hens ( the other roosters were not allowed to "attack" them). I just hope your Jethro will live a long life, because Alex died when he was 4, about 30 years ago.

[@ForsythiaHill]

So for the delay responding, our wonderful Jethro passed away several years ago also fairly young, around 4. Just think it takes a lot out of them guarding and lugging around all that SIZE! Amazing your roo was even bigger! Wow and roared :) Roo's are fun, I've missed having one around, esp Jethro.

So the sound that Cleopatra was making what does it mean, is it a distress call or what as my chicken has started to do it and Everytime I run out to see if she's okay however it's starting to happen more then usual sooo would love to know why and if it's something I should be concerned about.... First time chicken owner🤭😊

[@ForsythiaHill]

She is making this sound because she wants to get on the nest and lay an egg and there is already someone on "her very own" nest. So you should find another chicken on the nest. If not, it could be a sign of a hawk or fox or snake or other critter. It this is the case, they are really good at looking spot on in the direction of where the problem is lurking. You will have to be somewhat of a detective and try to determine what the call means. Every chicken is different :) Let me know what you discover. There is a reason for sure and you don't want to not respond if a predator needs to be scared away!
