I need some help one of my six chickens rhode island reds is making a strange sound from its throat and no its not a cockeral. I have had them from last year point of lay and they have been doing really well I think this oe is still laying but this wired noise is causing me concern. I have given it some olive oil and it does get plenty of grit.

Molly i have the same problem with one of mine at the moment, i think the answer is they are getting broody, i have noticed that she does it when another chicken goes near her, once she has laid she seems to calm down0
