At first glance, the idea of farmed animals singing might seem like a fairy tale. But if you listen closely, you’ll discover that farmed animals have their own musical voices when they are allowed to live in their natural environments.
Pigs Sing to Their Young
Pigs are deeply emotional animals with strong maternal instincts. One of their most heartwarming behaviors is their ability to "sing" to their piglets.
Mother pigs vocalize while nursing to soothe and bond with their babies.
Newborn piglets learn to recognize and respond to their mother’s voice, running toward the sound for comfort and safety.
Chickens Have Their Own "Egg Song"
Many people are surprised to learn that chickens sing! These vocal birds express emotions and events through specific sounds, including their famous egg song.
The egg song is a rhythmic "bawk-bawk-bubawk" that hens sing to announce they’ve laid an egg.
Other hens often join in, creating a supportive chorus for the hen who just laid an egg.
The Music of Animals: Nature’s Voice
Animals communicate through sound in ways that feel remarkably close to song:
Cows "sing" through gentle, low-pitched murmurs when they’re happy or content.
Pigs use rhythmic grunts and squeals to express joy and emotion.
Chickens and other farm animals produce sounds that signify social bonds and shared experiences.
