    Pullet bantam silkie acting sleep, doesn't move around much.

    Hi I got a new Silkie today along with one other bantam. They seemed ok with the other girls despite the others being bigger than them. There was barely any bullying and they seem to have settled down and are sticking to separate areas of the (very large) coop. I am concerned however because...
