I'm especially good with Emergencies/Diseases/Injuries, and with What Breed or Gender, but I'll really answer anything! I know about diseases (especially respiratory diseases, reproductive tract problems, Marek's Disease and Botulism, supportive care for chickens, dewormers, mite treatments/indentification, feather loss problems, injuries from predator attacks, picking the right antibiotic, dosages for Tylan, and more!). I can answer questions on incubation periods, correct incubating temperatures, how often to turn, and common incubating mistakes. I know about brooding chicks, preventing cannibalism, how much space chickens need/should have, different coops, preparing chickens for winter, and choosing the right breed. For breeds and gender, I'm pretty good at identifying breed/breed mixes, clarifying the differences between Ameraucanas and Easter Egger, telling gender based on comb size, color pattern, leg thickness, and stance, and sexing Silkies. I also know how to show chickens, and can help people wanting an idea of how good their bird is.
I think I'm probably best with figuring out genders/breeds and with emergencies/diseases/injuries. Not so good with incubation, genetics, or coop construction, but I would be happy to answer questions the best I could on those. Basically, I'm great with anything!
I can't say for sure, but I think its because she likes it. I have a bird just like yours, a Dutch Bantam hen named Pip. When I pet and hold her, she closes her eyes, makes chirring noises, and seems to almost fall asleep. She especially likes it when I scratch her head and neck.
