need some advice here...have an 8 week old silver laced wyandotte that is very skiddish and afraid. She will not let me pick her up, its just so frustrating because she is still in a brooder and needs to be put back in at night, etc. I can't even bribe her with treats to get close enough to grab her. My other 2 chicks are so sweet and let me pick them up anytime anywhere.
Is this a something she will grow out of?????
P.S. when I finally do grab her...I bring her into the house and talk softly to her and cuddle her for about an hour so she doesn't always think when I pick her up she will go back to the brooder, but I am still not convincing her to trust me!!!! I give her way more attention than the other two and it's still not working!!! Help!!!!!
