This isn't really a question, but just an observation. My 2 week old giants are growing faaast..They can already fly up out of the little brooder. Anyways, so they've been moved to the big brooder and are vastly different personalities than any of my other birds so far.
I stick my hand down in there, and the big girl stands up at a attention as to say "what the heck is that??!" but she doesn't panic. I can pet her on the head and her back and she just stands there, looking confused and alert. The other two birds don't mind being petted, however they are still skittish about being picked up. I am curious though, that first chick is bigger than the rest and has been since I picked them up at the shop. I'm wondering if she might be a he. She is very dominant over the other two. During the first week, when she would walk up to another bird, she was so tall even then that she would lift her foot up and shove the other bird out of the way. It was cute.
