    Adding Chickens to the Flock

    If it's ok to hop on this thread. I have tomorrow set as my introduction day and was thinking I'd let the new girls out into the run while I let the original flock free range. Should I let the new girls free range with the original flock later in the day or try to herd the original flock back in...

    RIR or Cinnamon Quenn

    I was given this hen today and they weren't sure if it was a RIR or a Cinnamon Queen. Out of curiosity, how could I tell those 2 "breeds" apart? I'll include a picture but it's through their pen so not the best.

    Introduction area

    Yes, I know. I'm fine with them using the shelves. I like that they have options and can use the vertical space that was already there. Poop boards would be ideal, but I was suprised that these clean up as easily as they do. I have contemplated sanding them lightly and add sticky floor tiles...

    Couple questions

    All are adult. I assume my hens to be EE, the rooster I posted here and was told barnyard mix. The new hens are not here yet but are adults - my friend has decided she has too many. She has offered me a Leghorn, hasn't decided what other one she wants to go yet. I've read about introducing etc...
