The easiest way is to interact with them everyday. Each breed has a temperament that will only allow so much cuddling or physical attention. Even my big Barred Rock hens will squat when you get close to let you know they are ready for a pet or a scoop if you can hold an 8 lb chicken Also my birds are calm when I walk slowly thru them, fast movements are alarming. This gets you close to your friends to begin try offering attention. There's also hand feeding which is a sign of trust to have with them. There probably isnt a perfect method to getting rid of skittish chickens but you can always get a few Silkies if you really want a snuggly bird. They are amazing!I got my chickens ever since they where a few weeks old but they are all still very scared and afraid of people including me unless I have treats. How do I get my chickens to easily allow me to hold them not be scared? And are chickens trained to be lap chickens or it just happens if they are trained how do you train them to be lap chickens?
