Hi everyone, i have a few four week old chicks that totally hate me, they won't eat out of my hands when i offer them tasty treats and any time i get within sight of them they freak out, and i don't know what to do. We have thirteen week old chicks that love me, they were eating out of my hands from day one. What should i do different? how should i get them to like me?
 
ferment chick feed for 12-48 hours and put it in a bowl they will realize its good and later feed them from your hand, you can also make a sound when you give them this fermented feed so they know its you. Also don't tower your hand above them because they'll think you're a hawk. Try to reach in from the side reaching sidewards.
