Bantam roost

[Homesteadermomma6382]

I have an established flock of full size hens and roos. They roost in a giant pine tree. I have a coop they use it to lay and get out of bad weather. I have 10 week old bantams that will be integrating in soon. Should they have a low roost or will they be able to get in the tree? The full size chickens jump up on top of the coop then up into the tree.

Regular bantams will be able to fly better than your full sized chickens unless you have some special ones. Some like silkies cannot fly so that doesn't apply to them. I'm not sure how much poofs around their heads that interfere with eyesight will affect their flying. Which bantams you have can make a difference.
