Pretty sure they still meow at other cats sometimes though.

Did you notice the smell got better too once you stopped the bleach? I did the same thing for way too long, lugging that hose out every weekend like it was a religion, and my poor girls still sounded wheezy half the winter. Turns out I was making it worse, all that wet bedding and fumes hanging around. Switching to just piling shavings on top was a game changer, the bottom kind of composts itself and gives off a little heat when it gets cold out. My coop stays way warmer in January now and I have not dumped a bucket of bleach in there in over a year. Sorry you had to deal with sick birds before figuring it out, it really does feel like you were doing the right thing the whole time.

Have to disagree that a weird display makes me want to buy. Most of the time it just makes me stop and look, then I keep walking. Saw a shop do a whole thing with books hanging from fishing line once, cool to look at, but I didn't buy a single one. The book still has to sound good to me, a fancy setup won't change that.
