I have 9 hens that I just purchased 2 weeks ago who had just finished or are in the middle of molting. I’ve kept them segregated from the others to make sure they do not have any diseases and such that they can pass on to my flock. 7 of 10 have been laying eggs from day 1 of my getting them.
My question is should I keep them separated until all their feathers grow back? I do have cockerel that have been eyeing them up and doing their mating dance waiting for them to join the rest. My flock is free ranged otherwise.
