My Very First 6 Chickens
*~* Livin', Lovin', Learnin' *~*
Greetings All,
Im a new chick momma to 6 3wk old black sex links. I have yet to hold one other than pick them up to move them while I clean the brooder. I see pics of people holding their chicks and even sitting on a finger outside of the brooder. If I tried to pick one up, it runs away. Also, if it did go on the palm of my hand, and i raise it out of brooder, that little chick is gonna fly and jump right off of my hand. Any suggestions? maybe I should not even bother trying? They are all super active and very curious.
Thank you to all the chicken pros out there. Your knowledge and sharing is EVERYTHING!
