Buffs and RIRs

[dfaulk]

Hello!! I am new to the forum, what a great web site!!!

I have a question for you guys. I have 2 RIRs and I want to get 2 Buff Orpingtons. Will these two breeds get along in the same pin. My pin is 8 ft long and 4 ft wide and about 8 ft high. My coop set inside the pin with the coop about 2 ft above the ground for cover. Thanks

. I have three RIR and one BO and they get along fine, of course they were raised together from chicks. So if you are going to introduce new hens to an existing flock you will need to introduce them slowly.

I have one Buff Orp and one RIR and they get along fine. I've had them since they were 6-7 weeks old.
