Hello,
I'm in need of some pointers on how to combine my 2 chicken flocks. I have an older group of 5 one of them being a rooster in their own coop. However, their coop/run was from TSC and is starting to fall apart.
I got 6 chicks from My Pet Chicken in May and they are outside in our new much nicer coop/run. I had purchased all female chicks, or so I thought. It turns out after hearing a new crow my polish "hen" is actually a rooster.
So, now I have 2 flocks, each with their own rooster. I would like to somehow combine them into one coop. I know they will have to learn a new pecking order and it wont be easy. So any pointers or tips would be simply amazing. I would love to get them all into one house before winter. My old coop will not make it another winter.
Thanks so much,
