Holding your chickens properly helps them feel calm, secure, and supported 🐔🤍
Instead of running after them and grabbing from behind with a two handed grip, try this first 👇
Gently scoop your hand underneath the breastbone while facing them, then place your fingers either side to help them feel secure and prevent them flapping away ✨
A calm chicken almost always starts with calm handling and after a few attempts you’ll find holding your hens becomes much easier 🐓
