Well yeah! That is part of having hens, sometimes you just have to get your flashlight and go groping.

See....I KNEW it!!!

True...that!

Good luck groping a chicken in the daylight... unless you're trying to lose an eye.

Hah if I started talking to mine one of my first chickens cookie she looks like a barred rock but when I got her had a polish looking crown every time I go in there and talk she squats cant count how many times I've almost kicked her stepped on her or straight went flying to dodge tripping over her I call her my blonde chicken.

She used to get picked on and not care until I got my easter Eggers everyone picks on them again except for the delewares they have to be my chillest calmest birds besides my brahmas

Oh that's cute. I had one that did that every time I said eggs she would squat if she was within ear shot. It was a riot. The best what I've found to get chummy with shy birds is over a pint.... of blueberries that is. Even my roosters will eat those right out of my hand.

Oh yea it's a different story when I go In with bread! I have flying chickens jumping chickens chickens yelling at chickens everyone is my friend with food till it's gone lol

But now that I know chickens stuff their faces before they Go to bed I'll be looking at that spot a little differently now. And not necessarily jump to groping a chicken

I handled mine a lot since they were like 2 days old.
They are sweet I can bend down and pick any of them up.
You can work with them to get them friendly or docile once you’ve got them. It takes time.
I promised myself that I would invest the time. It really does pay off if it fits your lifestyle.
Couldn’t imagine what I do if I had a large amount of birds. Guess I’d have to sleep in the coop or something lol

Dont take to bread in the hen house. Theyll be knocking each other off the roost to get to you. There such funny little creatures.

I have a lot of birds and it can be challenging but their all different ages and for the most part can handle all them no problem.... except shawn hes a pecker head and is so afraid of me. Which is ridiculous cuz I am so nice. Then his brother guster is having a love affair with my left foot... nasty little booger
