So I got them Dec 22nd, and I handle them twice a day, but they are so shy and hide and run when they see me, dec 22nd ..3 were 6 week old and 1 was 8 week old..fight like mad dogs when I go to pick them up... Iam assuming this all normal behavior..you should they won't even go near live meal worms when I place them in their brooder.. And no way will I let them take it from my hand ...cause one pecked me already really hard when I was trying to pick it up.. So iam scared pf their beaks..Lol
Also if I add photos, do you think you could guess their sex... .....? Iasked for all hens if possible from an extremely reputable breeder.. I never hear any crowing.. But one jumps up and karate chops the others and one, tries to drag around the other with their beak...I do not know a thing about chickens or how they play, I do understand pecking order so maybe they are just doing their normal chicken behavior... So my understanding was silkies are so sweet... Does this happen when they are much older.?...
