Definitely going to try that! Bring a handful of blueberries or a tomato lol

Thanks! Yeah I only pick up my chickens if they need to be inspected or moved and I try not to loom over them. The only ones that have ever jumped on me or sat in my lap are those Orloffs! The others have a healthy relationship with me; not super buddy buddy but not afraid either. I just don't...

Thanks! I dont want to scare them away though, this won't make them hate me? I do enjoy having tame chickens, it makes them much easier to catch if needed and frankly its nice to feel like they are comfortable with me. Will they still be comfortable with me if I peck them back? Also what do you...

I do enjoy the attention and them not being afraid of me, but the thing is, I'm afraid of birds! I love them, but even the sweet ones are just scary! Those little descendants of dinosaurs... lol

Lol! Its not really the prettiness I go for, but more of a mixture of uniqueness! I have my pretty gold laced cochin bantams which are so chubby and fluffy, my black old English game bantam that is so tiny and adorable!, my black rosecomb bantam that always stands so proud, 4 solid black ayam...

Thank you, I really like my chickens too. I only chose them for looks haha. I'm the same with rehomimg. I hate having the mentality that "no home they go to will be better than this home", but these days there's no way to tell. I'd rather be safe and keep them then let them go to a home thats...

The Orloffs and the Lakenvelders you see in the background are all 7 weeks old, and as you see that Lakenvelder rooster has a rather prominent comb. But, one of the Orloffs has a completely flat comb! I'm stumped, because this is a breed I've never even seen before these two. They act like...

Here are pictures of the culprits, I ended up having to video and screenshot the moments that they weren't pecking the camera!

They always have access to food! And I know for sure the others aren't eating it all before them because those Orloffs are always the very first gobbling up the food each day! And the feeder has enough room for all of them to gather comfortably and eat from it at the same time. I will try and...

So I have 12 chickens; 4 ayam cemanis, 4 mixed Bantams, 2 Lakemvelders, and 2 Russian Orloffs. All of my chickens are semi-tame. When I'm on their level, they will gladly take any food and treats from me as long as no sudden movements, and even when I'm standing up they won't run away as long as...
