Hi all! Cab we play another round of our favourite game… hen or roo? These are bantam SLW, I think between 8-10 weeks old.

Thank you! I’m going to start the long painful introduction process, I have mostly standard hens so hoping they will get accepted!

Good luck!
With my last integration, I kept the chicks outside in a pen right next to the flock & kept them separate for about a month or so, this seemed to help a lot, there were no issues when I finally moved them in.

Thank you! Yes this is what I concluded. I have a large pen during the day inside the run and I then during the night, I leave them in the covered area of my run in a crate. Hope this works. The rest of my girls are only 14-15 weeks old too so I’m hoping that will help as well!
