Hey, can you give me suggestions on SPOILING THEM ROTTEN? I want them to be sooooo friendly

Pick them up a lot so that they will be comfortable being held and wont be afraid.
People who show their birds handle them all the time and the birds become used to it and dont struggle or freak out.

When they get older, when ever you feed them of kitchen scraps or treats, always call to them. You know.... "here chick chick chick" or "Come here chickies" or, as one member does.... "here kitty kitty".

That way when you call them, they will always come to you expecting treats, just the way a rooster calls the hens over to a juicy worm.
That will make it much easier when you want to get them into their pen in the middle of the day, or out of the neighbors flower bed (been there, LOL) because they will follow you anywhere if they think that you have food.
