Taming chicks

[spoonie]

Thanks everyone.

I at least don't feel like my chickens hate me anymore. XD If other people are having those issues around this age, I am sure mine will grow out of it. They're moved out to the coop now, so come tomorrow afternoon I will get to let them out into the pen and maybe things will start to change when I can sit with them and let them approach me as they like. I'll bring some goodies, and bribe them into docility. XD

Hi Spoonie,
Just to reiterate what everyone else is saying, at that age I was telling everyone that my chickens hate me. I tried treats and that did help. I made a certain noise everytime I brought them something but actually, it's just their age. Mine are only 7and 8 weeks and are finally starting to get over it (except my barred rocks are still a bit on the skidish side but are improving).
Good luck, I'm sure they'll come around.
