    Why are my Pekins not friendly?

    I am routine happy! They get treats at certain times as a way to say it's ok and they can expect. They get a bowl of peas, blueberries and kale every night at 9:30.

    New Pekin Momma... Am I raising them right??

    I have been Googling (this forum repeatedly appeared) and have been reading everything I can, but want reassurance (or STOP! Don't do that!) from those who have been in my shoes and can provide some guidance. This is a LONG post, but I want to give everything I am doing to get the best advice...
