I currently have 3 silky roosters and 2 silky hens. ( i know names are not age appropriate) They are 18 weeks. I need to get homes for 2 roosters. Anyways, I brought home this cute buff hen. She is about a year old. just starting laying for the previous owner. I brought her in the run yesterday around 3:00. I sat in there to keep an eye on the interaction. She is alot smaller than my silkys. One female was pecking at her neck. One rooster took a shine to her and decided to mount her twice. I thought he would be slightly too young to want to mate. I kept an eye on them the harrassment continued. I put her in the coop and they all roosted and settled down for the night. This morning she was hiding behind the waterer. So I sectioned her off so they could have the no see, no peck window. (chicken wire fence) She has her own water n food. Any idea how long or if they will accept her? should I do anything else?
