I have three red sex link hens. 18 weeks. One is super friendly, lets me carry her, doesnt cry or fight me. Second doesnt like to be held but tolerates it for a few then tries flying her way out. Third one does not like to be held whatsoever. Makes a fight and makes very loud noises as if telling on me or yelling at me when I even try, sounds very aggressive and they all like eating from my hands. Is it normal for her to react in that manner? Im afraid she'll become worse.
 
They'll likely all become afraid of being touched or held. I think there are only a few breeds where being held is something they tolerate. When they are chicks almost all breeds will let you hold them and climb on you, but by laying age they usually become independent.
