I just got 3 new chickens yesterday, about 4 months old, barred Rock. So fluffy and sweet. It was dark when I got to the farm (daylight savings )
Girls were put in a box and brought home. Wanted to wait to introduce to my one hen until this morning so in the box they stayed overnight with some water and bedding.
I noticed one was a little more timid this morning than the others, and my lone hen was particularly interested in pecking this one. Separated them immediately, and came home for lunch to check on all. The one was still hunkered in the corner, and oddly at that. Then I saw her eyes what is wrong with my new baby?! Help!
