    Help introducing new pullet and 2 roo

    Hi! I need some help with our chickens :) We had a group of 5 1.5yo hens. We got 3 Faverolles and when they were 6-8 weeks old, we put them in a separate enclosure with the older chickens. We let them in there for a few weeks, maybe until 12 weeks? They were almost the same size when we opened...

    I know I am a little early as these are only 5 weeks old but like everyone, I am curious! These first 4 are Black Australorp. My guess is #1-2 are roo, #3 pullet and #4 not sure. The 2 orpington are maybe both pullet? And then Cochin #1 and 2 are too and #3 a pullet?

    Impacted crop

Are there any specific things to look for to make sure? We got 10...
