Clicker Training Japanese Bantams

I have successfully started training my Sultans! They are both indeed females, and quite intelligent! I have done maybe four training sessions with them, and have so far trained them to jump onto my arm (from up to about 2 feet away so far), and to peck a small silver bell I found in my room. Good thing I have it on a key chain ring with my clicker, otherwise they would probably swallow it! :D

Training them to jump to my arm was the first thing I started teaching them. They picked it up pretty fast!

Training them to peck the silver bell wasn't very hard, since chickens naturally peck shiny things... :p So every time they would peck it, they would immediately get their treat. But instead of using the clicker for this one, I just let them associate the sound of the bell with pecking it. :)
 
I have recently hatched three crossbreeds, and in an attempt to tame the only female, I have started training her! :D She has only had two training sessions, and she already will jump to my arm from about two feet away, with just the command and not the treat as a motivation. I hide the treat, then command her to jump to my arm, and reveal the food! :D

I have also started training her to go to a wood block on command - her "spot". :) She's doing that pretty well, too!
