My ex-battery hen has not been herself since Saturday. She had not been eating and would take herself in a corner and hunch up. I brought her in on Sunday. I managed to coax her to eat mashed pellets and started her (and the rest of the flock) on worming in case it’s that. Took her to the vets...
Thanks for this! We have ended up getting another silkie and things have settled down! There’s still a very clear pecking order, but it’s just the usual ‘get out of my way’. So happy it’s settled😊
Hello,
I currently have two hens, a hybrid and a silkie. They have been separated whilst getting used to each other, but were seeing each other all day. They’ve been free ranging together really well when supervised. We got a bigger run, and so we’ve put them in together. There’s no bullying...
