Hello Princess!

Lozzy, Roos need love too!

My two boys are not cuddly!

Breakfast started early today. Forecast predicts above freezing lows all week. Yesterday was supposed to hit 77 F (25c). When finished the clean out, thermometer read 84f (28.888888c).

Very peaceful this morning. The hormonal idiots haven't really gotten started yet today.

Mine aren't either. However, slipping in and rubbing crops when they're roosting in the evenings is allowed, even with the girls in front of the boys. For the most part, they're willing to come in close enough to touch (shy away if you reach for them) when sitting out with any of them. Indigo and Lark are more stand offish, but even Indigo was fairly close yesterday (within a meter) and not freaking out about proximity.

Mine were all brought up to be scared of petting. I think they used to get smacked on the head, because when I would pet them on the head, they would go and duck and go "BOK".
I am trying to get them to be more socialized, but I'm not sure if it's gonna happen.

Try rubbing their waddles?

Omg they hate that even more. They will jerk their heads back and flap their wings in my face.
Guess I'm going to have to just do all I can and let it be. When I want a roo, I go catch him.
Then I go pet him, and then let him go.
Not sure if there's anything I can do about it...

It takes time and patience to tame a shrew/ I mean roo!
