First I let them free range together for a month and then yesterday I put them in the coop together for 2hr in the afternoon.
What I have put off is finally happening: I just put my younger chicks (4) on the upper ring of the perch with the older hens (2) on the lower ring of the perch for their first night together!!!
Is there anything I should know about after integration???
I'm feeling super stressed out that they will hurt each other 'cause I heard that it is on the perch that they could hypothetically peck each other the most.
