Every time I come and go, I pass the chickens and say hi to them each time. I give them peanuts once in awhile. Probably not enough contact for them to trust me. They end up with roosters because no one wants more than one, if any. If she has roosters, she tries to find humane homes, or keeps them. She's got 2 right now, both a lot more docile than some of past roosters were.
