I have one beautiful RIR hen about 6-7 months old. I will be adding to the flock with 1-2 more hens in the spring. I don’t know how she will respond to newcomers as I’ve never seen her interact with any other chickens. She is gentle with us and the kids, dogs but not sure if she will be nice to new hens. Is it best to stay with the same breed? I really like the RIR’s because of their cold hardiness and winter laying, not to mention her chattiness and sweet disposition.
