Anyone else got a greedy chicken?

[AnonPaperclip]

I went out to feed my girls mealworms and this one decided to jump up on my lap and help herself!

Then when I placed the tub of mealworms on the table, she jumped up to get some:

Does anyone else have girls (or guys) who do this?

My two hens have been ravenous since the weather has gotten colder. Just like my dogs in the desert summer it's all drink and little food untill winter hits.

These two have been eating over a quart of feed daily in addition to asking for treats in the late afternoon. They come to the window clammering by pecking and scratching, lol

Who needs a Raven when you have my two!

Mine fly up onto my shoulders and arms...

Is she molting too? She looks like my mid molt welsummers. She probably needs a protein boost both for feather production and thermal regulation.

I have some very demanding chickens. My buff orpington hen pecks me until I give her what she wants. She usually wants to be held or wants me to give her some treats. It doesn't bother me though, her pecks aren't hard.

Yes, my fav Lulu is very greedy! After i feed everyone she follows me just to see if I've got anything else i could possibly give her. She weighs a full two pounds more than everybody else. I have to literally interrupt her eating to put her in the coop at night.

Artemis is one of the greediest chickens I've ever had!She even pecks at my pants when I don't give her treats.I love her anyway though!
