We just brought home 20 caged layers. They were living in such tiny cages they couldn't turn around. We are planning for them to be free range but have just placed them in their coop for the evening. A bunch of them aren't even walking and the rest of them look drunk. Is it too overwhelming for them to have so much space? Will they eventually have better control over their movements? Is there a way that would be best to introduce them to the outdoors? The ones we placed in nesting boxes haven't moved in hours and the rest of them aren't even attempting to roost.
TIA!
