Are you sure it was the chickens waking the baby, not the baby waking the chickens?
Babies tend to wake at that hour anyway; they are famed the world over for it. The chickens can hear better than we can, especially high pitch noises, (either that or they are more bothered by them - quite likely ime tbh), either way they definitely hear and react to stuff we have to strain to hear, it's quite possible that they heard baby whimpers before it started really crying. So anyone waking to either noise, is going to hear both.
In short I don't think it was anything you did. If there weren't a baby inovled, I'd have been looking for some other change in the local environment, such as a new fox or some other predator, or perhaps someone else getting chickens. (When I had a single cockerel, he would crow to one a mile away that I could barely hear, even when the wind was in the right direction.) |
