Hi all, well it’s been nearly a week and the ‘integration’ continues. Seems like my newbies spend all their time in the nesting boxes, I suspect to avoid my long-term gal who is being not so welcoming. This morning one of them was stuck behind the nest box divider - I imagine she was trying to get away (all okay though).
I’ve read that nesting boxes should only be used for laying, not for “hanging out”... maybe a curtain over these during the day would prevent the hiding and therfore encourage more interaction and (hopefully) eventual friendship?!?!??
