You are lucky that they are so tame. Frankie is our tamest. He will come up and talk to us but he does not like to be held. Part of the problem is that between the ducks, chickens and geese there is nowhere that is safe to sit.
Now they are older they still come to me and like to hang around me but being held is something else. Lucy will oblige but I can tell she is not all that thrilled. If I sit in the grass they come right over and wait for me to pull grass and feed it to them. That is how I check their feet too.
