Crazy Birds?

[balbrt1]

I have only had my chicks for 9 days. They started eat from my hand after 24 hrs. For some reason yesterday they started acting goofy. Every time I go near the cage they start flappy their wings until everyone gets all stored up. They act like they have never seen me or I am going to hurt them..Just crazy..Do all chicks go through this stage? I am ready for them to like me again. Lol

I'm sure they do. Start humming on your way. So many predators swoop down in chicks.

Ok..I do start talking to them as I go to the cage...They are not on the floor. These cages are on a table in family room where they see us all the time. They are about 2 1/2 weeks old now...they were such calm until yesterday..Hope this stage passes soon. The worse ones are the Buff Orpingtons and the Amerucanas

HaHa my chickens did the same thing . went in the coop to feed one beautiful. warm morning , and all heck broke loose. chickens were bouncing off the walls and screaming there heads off. you would have thought i had carried a axe in with me instead of the feed bucket. figured out it was because i didnt have my hooded coat on because it was so warm .never knew there were so many places a chicken could cram themselfs into to get away from the boogy man
