Young chicken pecking my eyes

Ah, the delightful antics of young chickens! At just nine weeks old, your feathered friends are likely exploring their surroundings—and you—like curious little explorers. Roosting on your shoulder is adorable, but those pecks at your eyes? Well, that’s a different kind of attention! It sounds like they might be attracted to the shiny, moving parts of your face rather than trying to cause any harm. To gently redirect this behavior, consider providing them with shiny toys or treats that can capture their fascination instead. Alternatively, a cozy lap for them to snuggle into might just keep those beaks at a safe distance. Remember, teaching them can be part of the cluck-tastic adventure!
