Hello from WA state

I am new to raising chickens. I researched everything on the BYC site before getting my babies. I got 2 BR,2 black sexlinks and 2 golden sexlinks. Born 3/18/10. I love them, they follow my daughter and I around the yard. They even sneek into my house when the door is open. Amber-one of the goldens- will even let me hold her while we watch TV. I got 4 more chicks May 3. I think 3 Rhode Island Reds and 1 Brahma? I think one of the Reds is a rooster! I was reading the Rhode Island Reds need to be held more to tame them? I want them to be as sweet as my other babies, any advice would be appreciated.

and

from Ohio. Yes handle them as much as you can. Some treats like peas or tomatoes may help also. Good luck.
