Kevin, (my hens name, named after a pigeon lmao!) loves company and sits on my computer while I do work, and recently, started to lay eggs! She laid one two days ago in her nest, then one this morning on my desk chair! (so proud of her!)
Still, she's too nervous to be picked up. I have to chase her and that stresses both of us out, so while im on the computer, I usually tickle her toes until she makes a giggly sound and pokes my fingers away. (in the morning she calls for me like a rooster at exactly 7am). We have some sort of connection but Id love to be able to cuddle her and hold her and be able to put on a chicken diaper until the weather clears in the spring where she can go free range.
thanks for any tips, tricks, or stories you guys may have!
