My company for the day. Everywhere I put her the others are mean to her. She's so sweet. I let her out while I'm working in pens and she just hangs out with Dad.

That's special! I've got an Ameraucana pullet that follows me everywhere but she's usually looking for a treat.

One of the Ameraucana pullets I hatched Easter weekend is not happy unless I'm holding her. Seems like I get 2-3 a year that I get really close to. 

I think this girl is just happy to be out of the pens. She's been beat up everywhere she's went for the last week or so. Tried to get her in a pen with a roo that she would take to. No such luck (she was quite smitten by my big blue red sport Ameraucana roo. She flirted with him all day, lol). When I put her in the pen with hens, they pick on her. Any cage I have her in she comes to the front and begs me to take her out. She'll be sleeping in her own pen tonight.

My AM pullet was the same way. She was hatched by a friend and she was that way with him and his wife, too.

She was perched on my arm this morning while I had a cup of coffee before church. She's had crop issues we've been trying to fix for weeks, though.

Sorry to hear she's having problems. She's beautiful, though. Is she having problems keeping weight on?
 
Was gone for the weekend, checked on my little broody OEGB last night, she was up and eating, but the eggs were toasty warm. I let her out for a few minutes and candled the eggs. All 9 looking great. Put her back in and she settled right back down on the eggs. She might just hatch me a few babies next week!

She acts healthy but isn't growing like she should but she gorges on food. I'm going to order her a "birdie bra" lol. Her crop gets huge at times. I made her vomit a couple days ago but I'm afraid she'll aspirate . Any suggestions?
