Default Gobbling Hen

While Ihave seen hens display as if in strut - I have never heard this. Had a few hens get real sassy with me - one tht bearded hen is on the wall and she came in just cattawhalling!

But take a look at this

Interesting

I've seen my friends yard bird gobble a couple times. Usually when the other hens and two gobblers are all worked up. That boss hen of his is extremely vocal anyway.
