Recently purchased 5 red sex-links, a couple of weeks before they lay. Then purchased 5 Plymouth Rocks about 2 months before they lay. The sex-links keep picking on the rocks causing them to hang out under the coop instead of inside. Will this straighten out or do the red guys need to go?
Have coup and run all in place and have ordered 10 chickens which are due in end of July. Since I've never done this before, would you chicken lovers out there recommend less (perhaps 5) or is 10 an okay amount?
