that I ended up naming Satan because she chases me around and pecks at me D: I've even tried feeding her bread and she still hates me! But she loves the rest of my family! I don't even eat chicken and she still loves them more! Why?!

This may sound strange but when she pecks at you, don't pull back. Pop the side of her face and say "no!" loudly. Eventually she'll come to understand that type of behavior isn't acceptable. Most hens peck at the owner or whom every is caring for them because they assume the person is afraid of them but when that person shows no fear and treats them no differently they understand what they are doing is wrong.

That's why she pecks at you then because she knows you're afraid. When you dont show you're scared, she'll back off.

I'll try, I usually avoid her like the plague. I don't know why she scares me so bad, I know it's dumb to be scared of a chicken but this one is psycho! lol

Oh I know the feeling, the road island red hen I've got was like that too at first. She was mean as all get out but once I showed her I wasn't scared she never pecked at me again. Now and then she'll try it just to see if its changed and when she sees me going to pop her she backs up because she knows better.

sorry... my dog acts like that!! well he really only likes my mom but you get the idea... i give him treats, walks, everything but he still will bark and n** at me! tbh i guess all you can do is keep your distance, and if they come running at you then stand your ground and show them they cant bully you like that. the pecks might hurt a bit but it could be worth it if you can show her that youre the big one here and you call the shots!

My grandparents' dog use to be like that till they went on vacation and I fed her and kept her company. Now she won't leave me alone lol. She hates my dad though because she snapped at him so he picked her up and threw her in the pond. Now she hides in the bushes and barks at him since we live like 30 yards away

aw thats so cute about the doggy liking you. so sweet. cry heart pretty ridiculous move on your dads part but at least shes alright and they arent going near each other now huh. that reminds me, my dog might snap sometimes, but i would never throw him in the pond...... partly because he falls into it all the time on his own... hahaha
