Awww! So cute!
Our Cochin/Amer. pullet, Oreo, LOVES to cuddle! She was raised all her life in her brooder box with no other chicks because she was the only one who hatched out of the batch of eggs we had in the bator.
But she got a lot of attention! Maybe a little too much...Now that she's older, she still thinks she's a human or something because she's lived in the house ever since she hatched, so now we are teaching her how to be like a real chicken.
She doesn't follow the rest of her flock, she doesn't go to roost at night, some of the other chickens bully her. At least she has some friends; her mother, Raven, and a small Cochin Bantam, named Pumpkin.
But she still likes to be off on her own, wandering around in the yard.
Anyway, she loves to cuddle! When I pick her up, she will fluff up and snuggle in my arms. And when I let her sit on my arm, she will fluff up and settle down like she's roosting.
