    Introducing 4 hens to flock

    Thank you, They have been in a run next to the flock for 3 weeks. I thought maybe they would be okay. I guess they are a little smaller then the other hens. s I just need to wait. I am just worried about the rooster being mean to them.

    Well, out of the ten chicks I brought home from my classroom in May, five were roosters. This was interesting for a few months. I now have one rooster and four hens that are 11 months. I just brought home 4 more hens that are three weeks old. Here I go again raising the baby chicks.

    Hens with loss of feathers

    Thank you. The one rooster is fine now! It happened when there was five of them. I do have one saddle on one of the hens. This seems to help. Just didn't know if there was something else to help them grow.
