This is a great article.. I recused my baby when she was 8wk old…13 YEARS later we are still together…she’s sleep with me in my bed as I type this…I socialized her from a young age…she has never shown any aggressive tendencies…she’s an absolute love bug…and she’s GREAT with our chickens and ducks 🥰
