Who here can speak chicken? Lol

It's possible Bocboc is a male. But she was supposed to be a girl
Might want to post pics because that is definitely one of them trying to crow.
At least one is a male.
Bocboc is white/black mottled and Chickie is brown

I have 2 bantom house chickens. They are 3 months old. Sometimes one of them makes this strange call and I don't know what they are trying to say. It only happens when I'm not in the room, and it's not very often.

What do you think?

Edit: They are both girls!
Bribe them with blueberries. That's what I do with my bantam after she lays her eggs and starts doing the egg song. I run to get her a couple blueberries and she's so excited about the berries that she stops screaming. I live in a condo and it works every time. :)

Also, they are probably making that noise because they are lonely. I realized that my chicken needs to be with me ALOT but if I let her work with me she is never loud.

Doing that can actually make them be loud more often as it rewards the behavior. While you can't train a chicken to be quiet you can certainly make them louder. Loneliness can absolutely cause a chicken to be distressed (hence why it's not advised to keep just one chicken, 2 will keep them from being too lonely but 3 or more is ideal) but some birds are just loudmouths and roosters especially are going to crow no matter what you do
