Gosh, I'm really such an avid poster here lately! But where else can I get such sound advice?!
So, I have two new pullets (12 wks old) and an established flock of three hens (6 months). Right now I am keeping the groups separate. I let an established hen in with them to see what would happen, and it was not too friendly. I can't imagine how brutal it would be letting my two HUGE barred rocks in with the pullets too.
Am I going to have to separate the flocks forever? Or just until the pullets get bigger? What worked for you in a similar situation??
Thanks!
