My chickens have human like behaviors! Let's start with my rooster.
My rooster, well, all of my chickens respect personal space, they don't like when I get between their wind spand. My rooster doesn't like when you take pictures of him the only good pictures of him I got are when he's walking away. My rooster also hates being pointed at stared at ect.

the rest just don't like to be stared at, touched, or you getting into their bubble or business. Do any of your chickens do this if so reply what human like behaviors they have!

All my birds come running to me. My boy Dino loves talking to me, & being a camera hog. He also skips instead of walking like a normal bird. He can walk normal, I've seen him walk normal, so I know it's not permanent.

I have a bantam hen who thinks she's people. She talks, follows, loves working in the garden, & of coarse digging unnecessary holes in the dirt.

We had a bantam SLW roo that would follow us around while gardening. As soon as we'd take out a new seed packet, he'd cock his head and do a little questioning cluck. He was so sweet. Such a shame we had to give him away.
 
Cute topic for a thread! Yesterday, our EE pullet Carrots decided she MUST sit on my shoulder to tell me about her day.

When she does this, I usually find a better perch asap and tickle her butt until she hops over to it, but I was too distracted tidying their run to worry about it. She chattered on and on until she suddenly stopped...

There was a suspiciously warm feeling down my back 😅 as Carrots started talking again, obviously feeling even lighter and happier than before.

I tickled her off my shoulder and headed to laundry and a shower. Super gross, but I couldn't stop laughing. She's a fun little bird and was just so pleased with herself all around.

Edited to add that I'd recently given them a small pan of cucumber and blueberries, so to put it nicely, it was an "enhanced" poop. Somehow managed to salvage the shirt, but it's on the bubble.
