Hello and welcome to BYC Luke. :frow

When I had new flock members to add to my coop I made a baby area in the coop with chicken wire. To protect the babies while the adults got used to the new additions. It let's them bond without letting the babies get hurt.
It usually too a couple weeks and then also need to make sure there are no he's the youngins can get out through.
Good luck.

Why won't they let you have dogs? (If you don't mind me asking)

Well hopefully pepper can teach the how to forrage and eat bugs. That should help them accept her.

uuugh mixture of reasons which keep changing... all in all i really dont know... something between not sure if i could care for them (after having guinea pigs which have a real habit of not staying alive :hmm) then proving that i can care for a pet keeping (well, at least pepper...) going for 5 years strong! id say they just really dont want a dog... so im not going to argue ive got a duck now :wee:lau

G’Day from Far North Queensland Luke :frow Welcome!

Great intro! It had it all :hit's :)'s :yesss:'s and :lau's

I hope you enjoy being a BYC member. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun.
 
Great to meet you Luke. My parent's wouldn't let me have a dog till I was 11. He was supposed to be my best friend but, one glance at my father & he jumped ship. Pretty hard to take a dog dumping you.

None the less after high school I got into raising Cocker Spaniels & owning a grooming shop.
