Just want to say how incredibly jealous I am reading about your cuddly hens. I have four sapphire gems who seem to like me (as I’m the bringer of treats), but they don’t like me touching them, and especially not being held. I was surprised because I’ve had them since they were babies and handled them often. I respect their space and try not to mess with them, rather get on their level and talk to them.
