Hi everyone. We recently discovered that one of our four hens is a rooster. We're not allowed to keep roosters where we live and have arranged for someone to take him to a happy home.
And we'd like to add another hen as soon as possible to the coop, ideally the same age as the other ladies (2.5 months).
We're wondering if the sudden loss of the rooster might make it easier to introduce a new hen? Perhaps before a new pecking order (or head-hen) is established?
Thanks for any advice!
