    well crap. I just cant catch a break for my 4h kids. He was sold to me as a BCM an the seller knew what Id use him for. So so very frustrating. So your thinking he is an Olive egger Roo?

    Thanks! That was my thinking too. Plus the stress of catching them to clip wings would be worse IMO.

    Someone else suggested clipping their wings so they cant fly up an hurt themselves. Thoughts on that??

    Thank you all for your advice! I will go back to sitting with them. Im their primary caregiver and I have noticed they are much worse if my husband goes in. So I should look at that as progress! Ive tried apples and bread an they didn't want that so hopefully that list has something they'll crave!

    Ok I will give that another shot. I tried tonight and suddenly had a peahen on my head! Im not worried about petting, while that would be nice. I just want them calm around people.
