Anyone else got a greedy chicken?

[CCUK]

I think it should be titled 'has any one got a hen that's not greedy?'. My hens are like feathered pigs! They get all manner of treats. I know you shouldn't give them too many. But no matter what they get its never enough! It's unbelievable when they are running around with a crop like a Baseball and still want more. I have wormed them!!

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?

Yes my chickens would bombard me when I’d sit on my back steps with treats! I loved it! Chickens are such characters.

Yup... Chickens are like pigs with wings crossed with T-Rex miniature!
It was my EE Missy who started begging at the door and entering if it opened and no one gave treats yet. My BR Dasher recently decided pecking me was the way to go. I'll not be having any of that, so began some discipline on the spot after a painful grab of the inside of my elbow. (I made a hawk noise and mocked pecking at her with my fingers). Donner if she can find the food cache will do her best to get at and consume all she can eat!
Enter the beginnings of obedience training (thread just started).
Dasher now flies up to get her handheld bites.
