They all run when I try to pet them. I haven't tried holding them since they were small and then had to go out of town a whole month. Think I missed my opportunity with these girls, but they will come close to me--just not close enough to touch--they know who gives them treats!
First time chicken owner. Raised them from chicks and they are now 4 months old. They live in an enclosed, covered run 14x28 here in south/central Texas. 2 black Australorps, 3 Americauna/Easter Eggers, 1 Buff Orpington, and 1 surprise from the hatchery.
I like to garden, can, quilt, and read...
