None are silkies they are Easter eggers/ Ameraucana, French Marans and delawares. I have tried the roost idea few times but they usually fly off the roost pretty quickly.
So my chickens are now 6 and a baldish weeks old and they still don't roost. Instead they curl up in a content of the coop together. It is pretty warm here and the temperature never gets below 65. Why aren't they roosting yet?
