I have four red sex links, and we just aquired two bantam silkies. They're only 9 weeks old, so I'm keeping them apart from the older girls, although they're in the same general area in order to get them used to one another.
For those of you who have larger hens and bantams, are there any special issues when trying to integrate the two? Will the larger hens automatically be top in the pecking order? Can the smaller size take care of themselves okay among the big girls? Any comments would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
