As for chickens, I would imagine, in all seriousness, that they don't have the neccesary equipment (please don't ask me what that is) Back to top summayah Joined: 14 Apr 2005 Posts: 4289 Location: luton Posted: Mon Apr 25, 2005 9:20 pm    Post subject: yes, you're probably right nannyp, it's something to do with the vocal chords slackening I believe ~ never thought of that Back to top Deb_Moderator Joined: 13 Apr 2005 Posts: 3661 Posted: Mon Apr 25, 2005 9:33 pm    Post subject: So, I guess I need to go out to my coop tonight and place a tape recorder by 2 of my girls..... They snore!!!!!! Scared me the first time I heard it. It sounds like a little high pitched cooing on the exhale and you can see their bodies sort of wiggle with the coo. I find it rather cute. Funny how they are forced to sleep alone in seperate areas...none of the other girls will cuddle up to them.
