I have just rescued three ex battery hens they are very chilled wandering around the garden, but how do I get them to be comfortable around me and hopefully eat out of my hand and approach me , I can get quite close .

Thank you , I am letting them do they’r own thing at the moment, and just sitting quietly near them for a couple of minutes at a time .Welcome to BYC. Give them time and allow them to come to you - chickens hate change and take a while to adapt to a new environment. Well done on rescuing them.
I’m a bit of a sucker for rescuing things, I have rescued a dog two cats , 8 weeks ago I rescued and hand fed a dove and now the chickensWelcome to our FUNomenal Flock!
Best Wishes & Be Well!
It will take time for your flock to adjust and trust. Kuddos to you for rescuing those ex-batts!!!
