Hi!

So i currently have a flock of 5. Two Wyandottes, a Plymouth, a Sussex and a little Bantam Silkie. Ever since we got the silkie, [We had two different hens, an Araucana and another Wyandotte, the Plymouth and new wyandotte are recent] she seems to always be left out. She has been with my Sussex and my Silver laced for the longest, they accept her but kinda ignore her existence. When we got our current Gold laced wyandotte and Plymouth, they ignored her just as she ignored them. We are all really worried she could get really lonely and we unfortunately cant get another bantam due to regulations.

I try to spend time with her but i think she gets lonely a lot when i am not around and the other hens ignore her. Is there a way i could maybe keep her occupied and happy?

Thanks all and sorry for it being long.


This is her! [We dyed her pink for easter. xD]
 
you could try getting another Silkie, or something equally docile. because they are so docile they get picked on a lot and seem to prefer their own type as company I guess its a safety thing. although if she isn't getting picked on then that's a good thing as they so often get beaten up for being so much smaller and more docile
 
I have two light bhrama bantams that hang together among my flock of 6 much bigger birds. I need to find one of them a home (a rooster I don't need), but this is why I'm hesitant to do so. I don't know what my other little bantam girl would do without him
