It's a general dialect word meaning squeaking or chattering as birds might do. (I can't guarantee that's what it means in Staffordshire, however.)

Click here for a website on Staffordshire dialect. There you will see that 'chelp' means 'cheek'. Presumably, therefore, 'chelping' means 'being cheeky'.
