Introducing silkies to my lonely hen

[Pennys Mama]

Thanks, put things in perspective for me, I lost my 2nd girl tonite & am down to 1 with emotions running high! A brand newbie country girl 1st "flock" it seems so personal, ur post is a reality check that is welcome

Sorry about you losing another of your girls. Amazing how attached we can get to the buggers, huh? I recently lost my main guinea, raised from a day old, fed by hand.... yep, I'll admit it, I cried.

I think integrating is the trickiest part of chicken tending. Good luck...it will take time but they will figure it out.

And welcome to BYC!

Do you have a docile hen you could put with her? If that goes well, you could try putting them both back into the flock. Integrations go better if it's two birds facing the flock rather than just one.
