I'll sit on my porch and take a small handful of mealworms. One or more hens will hop up and eat out of my hand. When the hand is empty, they'll jump down, and it will be someone else's turn. Hildegard has learned that once the hand is empty, she can jump down, walk around to the other side of me and hop back up and of COURSE she believes that I think it is a completely different hen and thus, she gets more treats.
