Chantelle Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 I picked up my pekins on tuesday and their roughly 12 weeks although two are defo much begger than the other two but their lovely togeather. I sat for hours with the eglu door open trying to coax them out with treats and they wont come out! I yhought at least they feel the eglu is their protection theyd come 1 metre out for treats then reallie theyd been duuped and ran pack in squeeking away ha ha will it just come in time or am i doing something wrong x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisaroo2 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Hiya, our lavenders were the same at first, they were around 12 weeks when we got them and took time to settle. Hang in there, they'll come out when they're ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankx lisa roo they came out a little further this afternoon we have one lavender and shes the smallest and most timid she stays at the back and cheeps like a baby shes sooooo cute we keep picking her up (which she doesntlike) and giving her extra treats as the others push her out its a bit sad dont knowif thats usual bottom of the pecking order business but shes a bit measley compared to the rest lol poor lola! Our flo who we have now dubbed fat flo as shes forever comfort eating ha ha keeps shooing her back into the eglu think shes trying to be a mummy not sure Im rather puzzled but i can sit and watch them for hours its like watching eastenders!! Back yard chicken style! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're a great way to spend a relaxing sunny day. And it's all for a good reason as as you are watching them you are learning about their personalities, therefore being able to tell if things aren't quite right. BTW I've got two chicks on my lap having a snuggle as I type! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
