Term for gossiping women?

Question

Is there a Spanish term (common to Mexico) that might be the equivalent of "flock of hens" to describe gossiping women?

Answer 1

Chismoso is an adjective that means "someone who likes to find out the chisme (gossip) and spread it to other people." So, women who do that could be called chismosas. These terms are used in Mexico a lot!

EDIT PS: I'm not saying you should call them that directly though. It could come across as either playful or accusatory, depending on your relationship.
