thanks you all are very helpful.
i have another problem.
i had a chick hatch on jan 8 or so and was in the house until about 4 days ago.
well when he was in the house he would fly onto my arm and was overall just a very tame little chick.
well since i have moved hi m outside he hates to be picked up and runs every time i get near him.
he is in with 8 other chicks and they "were" all very tame but now they run also.
they didnt have a mom as they where hatched in the incubator but i put a black silkie hen in there and she is a very nice hen and she has taken on role of mothering the little chicks. i dont think that she has anything to do with it but i dont know. does she.
has she been teaching them bad habits.
she likes me and is not at all skiddish.
so please help me.
thanks.
