Hi Guys,
I just wanted some advice. I have a flock of 3 Pekin Bantams which are roughly 12 weeks old (1 Chocolate Rooster, 1 Silver Patridge Hen & 1 Lavendar Hen). Sadly the Chocolate Rooster was taken by a fox yesterday and the chickens were sad. I have only had these chickens for 2 weeks so far.
My question is:
Since I have only had my chickens for 2 weeks and they have settled in & also lost their rooster, would it be hard for me to introduce another Rooster/Hen into the flock or would I need to seperate them to ease them in?
Also, what if I were to introduce another 2 so there are 2 newbies and 2 normal chickens?
Many thanks!
