    Integrating, Segregating and and Downright Racial Birds!

    awe What a great idea! I have a HUGE dog crate from when my silver lab was a puppy. It’s one of those fold up kinds, so I saved it! I really like this idea. A lot!! I will give it a go and let you know how it turns out!

    Thank you so much for such a well thought and thorough answer, Ridgerunner! So my big girls- the older ones, just started laying the last two weeks. I don’t believe all of them are layers yet and I walk around with my found eggs asking, “Is this yours? Did you do that?” No one answers more...

    I bed them separately, but free range them together. They have 10 acres to “socially distance” if they don’t like each other. LOL.

    It’s kind of odd, no? My big girls will pick on all of the babies, but not go after the little brown leghorns as they do the white leghorns. And they’re both very sweet birds, that will protect the little ones. It’s not as if their appearing as weak to the big girls.

    Hello, hello! So, I see many topics about integrating chicken flocks together, but I’m not finding much about my situation and if I’m onto something about my flocks. I have 10 brown leghorn hens that are 3.5 months old. They are a quirky, sweet and curious bunch. They are friendly enough to...
