what you are describing is so typical of young ones playing. She is obviously feeling good :) maybe you are feeding her something that she has been needing, or something that makes her feel super good and energetic. Believe me, she will always run away if you act dominant. Raise yourself up as tall as possible and wave your arms and speak loud and mean. Say ANNNNTTTT and flap your arms and I 100% guarantee she will jump away so fast it will be comical! she isnt settled in yet either, is she... maybe she is releasing energy from the move, and expressing a little braty behavior over having to leave her family. but believe me, she is way more afraid fo what you might do than you should be of her. Just dont let her get within kicking/striking distance. Just wave your arms and holler. clap etc. Janice -- yipie tie yie yo
