Anybody else here have skittish EE? Mine started out so sweet and promising and now are so skittish they can barely be handled.

Not sure what the problem is.Maybe the particular mix that they are is the problem? I'm pretty disappointed in them actually.My red pullets from TSC are much friendlier and more personable.I've tried treating them and feeding them food by hand but most of the time they won't take it.They will eat crickets that I throw in the cage and also dried mealworms.Will their skittishness rub off on my friendly girls when I end up introducing them to the flock? Or will the flock have a calming influence on them?Any help would be much appreciated.

How many chicks are you looking for? My line originated in Georgia. I am trying to keep the line pure. I bought more breeding stock from a fellow BYC member in Alabama who has the same line.
