My 4 Wellie girls sound like they're keeping true to their breed lol! Mine really don't like human attention and will usually pitch quite the fit when we try to pick them up *eye roll*
But there is one that will come to me if I sit down and she will perch on my leg, I feel like she tolerates me petting her then, drama queens! Oh and the Roos?! They're worse than the girls lol! I suppose that's because they're roosters, but still they scream like little girls when we pick them up.
Eta-I do have one girl that likes to peck my daughter (11 years old and knows how to act around chickens) and then yesterday she came up to me as I was sitting down in the grass and wanted to sit beside me, so I was petting her a little for about 10 minutes. But then it's like a switch flipped and she was eyeing my hands, which were on my lap, like she was going to peck me, not in a hackle-raised, aggressive stance, it was odd. And then she pecked my finger, so I gave her a nice seat. I'll be keeping an eye on her :/
