Amazing that a speaker of one language could hear "cockadoodledoo" while a speaker of another language hears "kikiriki". (I did a YouTube search for "rooster cockadoodledoo" and "gallo kikiriki", and they really are the same sounds.) I guess it's all a matter of what you expect to hear.

yes of course it is. The rooster makes a noise that doesn't sound anything like either of those. More like... arrerrerrerrooo... which is not as cute as "cock a doodle doo"

Though I guess "moo" and "muu" are not too far off.

In French it's "cocorico" (stress always on last syllable in French, "co-co-ri-CO") and if someone is being a braggart or, as we say in English, crowing about something, you can cut his ego down a bit by yelling "cocorico!" Of course "coco rico" means "delicious coconut" in Spanish...

for gu gu all I tried pigeon - since they are as common as doves and sound the same, maybe that could be added ?

Dogs go "guau guau", cats go "miau", ducks go "cuac". Look for the song "El pollito pio", you'll get an idea

For some reason, all of these make me think of Arrested Development where they all have different sounds for the chicken dance.

I thought iiik would be a pig. Probably cause in in my mother language i sounds like the English e. So iiik = eeek. Not sure about the Spanish pronunciation of the letter. But oink oink would be a pig I guess.

"iiik" seems to be more like the sound that is made by the person who sees the mouse.

Could "hen" be added as a type-in for "chicken"? (I tried "hen" twice but somehow "chicken" didn't occur to me.)
