Hi guys. I have 5 Jersey giant hens and a Jersey giant rooster. I recently acquired 2 four month old white leghorn hens. I set them up in a smaller coop next to my main coop for about 2 weeks to get all of them acclimated. I moved them into the flock Thursday. It went better than expected. Some chasing and that's about it. However the older hens would not let them in the coop the first night. They went into the coop the next day when the others came out. Now the leghorns won't come out of the coop. They eat next the the others perch next to them walk freely around the inside of the coop together just fine but they will not go out to the run. Is this just some thing that will take time or what. This is the first time I have introduced to members to the flock. My rooster also seems to always has his eye on them the hens really never pay them any mind. The rooster has been dancing for them and trying to get their attention but they clearly want nothing to do with him right now.
