I got my sapphire gems from tractor supply almost 9 weeks ago (this Wednesday will be 9 weeks), so they're right about the same age. Hopefully, they'll stop acting so apprehensive around me soon. I go out and sit and talk to them all the time, when they want to be around me that is.... most of the time they go somewhere else.I’m not who you asked but I have three 9ish week old black silkies from TSC. From day one of having them (couple days to a week or so old) they were terrified of me. Absolutely, completely terrified.
A week and a half ago, shortly after moving them to the coop, a lightbulb went off. None of them are terrified of me and one has become my Velcro chicken. I am pretty sure it’s a cockerel and he is so sweet that he has me performing chicken algebra on how I can keep him. He doesn’t like to snuggle but he tolerates pets and would much rather follow me around than hang out with the flock. It’s adorable
I need/want to keep two standard Roos (1 Phoenix and 1 Wyandotte) but I can’t imagine not having this little guy!
