Hi. This is my first post. I am from Mississippi. My wife and I have always wanted to raise chickens. We recently moved farther into the county and we now have some birds. We have 4 ameraucana hens and a rooster that are about 5 months old, 2 buff polish about 3 months, and a white silkie about 2 months.
Now my question. The 4 hens seem to spend almost all their time in the coop. Even when we give them treats the rooster comes running but we just have to kinda run the hens out. Our coop is about 6'x8' and its pretty dark. Is this normal?
