I need help getting my new pullets into the flock. These birds are the flocks offspring, but they just won't let the young ones in. I thought i did everything right. Raised youngins in a separate pen. Come fall at 8 mo. old I started introducing them to the big pen. All 5 of my other hens won't let them eat or drink at the feed or water bucket at all. Thought this would mellow out, but no..... . Divided my run in 1/2 when I first introduced them too. All my birds free range from noon or so on till dark. Even when all are free ranging the newbies can't hang with the other birds. They're off doing their own thing. All roost together, but that's all they'll do together. Any good suggestions
