Hello everyone, I just got my first three chickens yesterday and put them straight into the coop as advised. Today I opened the coop door and waited, and waited for them to come out, but they only poked their heads out throughout the day and stayed in the coop all day. It has been raining all day and I was wondering if it was the rain that put them off coming out or maybe they were still a bit stressed. They are 22 week old pol Black Rocks. I tried to coax them out with banana, but no joy. Is there anything else I can do or just wait it out. (By the way got 2 eggs later in the day, was so thrilled, didn't think it would happen right away, but the breeder said that two of them have been laying for a couple of weeks.
