I have 4 Rhode island reds and they are more nice than mean. Some signs of them being smart is today I saw one about 10 feet a way from the others, I went over to try and pick him up then as I was walking over there 1 of the chickens behind me jogged up to me and was staring at me real close I stopped and looked at him, A few seconds later he started to wander off. And before that I started pacing around them to see which one would be more separated from the others Because I was going to pick up one of them to carry around, And surprisingly they started to gather up and went into the coop. That surprised me very much.
