Hello,
I am new to chickens and BYC. I have 5 pullets (I hope). They are about 12 weeks old and getting lovely.
BR, BO, GLW, Americana and Mottled Java.
They have been in their coop since they were about 4-5 weeks old - before that they were in my bathtub. They love to sleep in a big chicken pile - like a puppy pile. We have put up two roosts and I will go and put them on it sometimes, but they always come down and sleep in the corner of the coop on top of each other.
I am worried sometimes at who is on the bottom. Will they learn to roost?
Thanks for your help, Krista
