First flock is 1.5 years old
2nd flock is 4 months old. I introduced them by fencing them off from older flock for 2 weeks.
they pretty much hang out as separate flocks
today I got( 2) new silkies. I wanted to see how they would do just tossing them in. So I did. And one of them the younger flock kept checking her out. Then they would start pecking at her
so I separated them.Silkies on one side and other flock on the other.
should I start take the time and re introduce with the fence in between.
or maybe tonight throwing them in the coop and seeing if they wake up and wake up and all is good.
The silkies also don’t have a coop. I gave them a little dog kennel. Does any one have another idea of what I could use if this is longer term for them
