With a little practice you can tame even free-range birds although process will be slower. Work on getting them to come in for food, then get them to eat from hand, then work on getting them to allow you to touch them. From there you work on getting them to perch on you. I have a couple stags never penned that will try to crowd me from the feed mixing bowl. They are pushing five months could have been doing it younger if worked.


You can take a really wild cock and tame him down in a couple weeks following a more regimented procedure. That what we used to with stags harvested from walks.

You can also botch things up with penned birds. There is technique to process. Can be good, bad and in between.
Thank you I have heard you say this before I have seen your videos as proof..

I just need to spend more time with them... I am quick to feed them and get on with doing the rest of my chores.

I really only have one pair that is completely tame and docile around me and everyone else. These have been my kid's favorite birds since they were chicks and have had constant interaction with humans. So I know that time and care will tame.
 
I called him my MVP earlier this year... Looking ugly right now.. I hope he is just going through weird awkward stage right now and ends up feathering out nicely...
I'm sure he will, most of my stag are still moulting and growing new feather, from head to toe...I mean leg
