Since posting earlier today, we went to our fav feed and seed and bought 3 barred rock and 3 buffs. I can hear them cheeping now. We also have a chicken tractor that needs some updating and we will move them there when the weather permits and they have feathers. That way the older chickens can see them through the wire when I Iet them out and hopefully get used to them. I did this once before and it worked Except???.....(.I will write about this later.) I am squimish about the pecking thing. I want them all to get along, and, of course, my husband tells me they are chickens.
BTY---The older chickens have a lovely hen house that my husband built. I call it the Chicken Palace. Huge for two chickens and needs to have more population in there. Plus more eggs for us.
