I have three hens (2 Black Australorps and 1 Barred Rock)...I recently took in a Silkie Roo...he is about the same age as my hens...just under a year old. My Australorps are awful to him...pecking him forcing him into a corner not letting him near food or water. I have removed him for his safety and he is in a smaller coop right next to the girls. Should I put him back in with the girls? I’m planning on rehoming the Australorps as I’m not a big fan...I want to keep my Barred Rock and add in some Silkie hens...also getting Guinea keets at the end of May...any suggestions on how to make this menagerie work? I’m fairly new to this chicken life...but loving it!
