Have handled the Mom some when she was little, the chicks very little as they seemed to freak if I tried to pick them up. Mom hatched them and raised them, and I just let her do ther thing, she hung out with my laying flock. If you handle them every day they should get used to it. They are half cochin and half Iowa Blue, and my Iowa Blue is not a snuggler at all. Glad they are integrating well, is hard bringing in new chickens sometimes.
