Here’s the situation: I have two 4 month old chickens, and two 1 month old chickens. I’ve just put my 1 month olds in the coop in a fenced off area so the big birds can get used to them. In a few days, I hope to release the chicks out of the fenced off area so they are free to run around. This is also when I hope to get rid of one of my 4 month old birds. The problem is the other bird; she gets really upset when I hold the one I hope to give away, so I’m worried she’ll throw a fit when her brother isn’t there. Is there a way I can smoothly get her acquainted with the little chicks so she doesn’t feel “lonely” after I get rid of the other 4 month old? Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I do not want loud chickens
