Argentina Squatted!

[Willowspirit]

I was sitting out with the chickens today. One of my SLWs was hanging around. I wanted her to go back in the run so I tapped her lightly on the side and she squatted!!! My little girl is growing up!

I can so relate to your excitement, the first squat here was maybe 10 days ago and every time she does it I'm just thrilled! I also have to say that I appreciate how much easier she has become to handle at this point...like I was (finally) being recognized as The Boss by somebody around here....

Yesterday she hopped up on the arm of the chair, then my arm and just settled down. It was thrilling!

I'm waiting for this stage, but I have a while to go. Mine are 9 weeks and so adolescent! We moved them from brooder to coop last night and they are so put out, and freaked out! Nothing mellow about these gals. I'm excited for you, @Willowspirit !

These are the Wyandotte’s and even though they’ve eaten out of my hand since forever, this kind of “I feel safe with you” behavior is.just starting. They’ve been in a coop since five weeks and are 15 weeks. Your turn is coming!
