New Chickens

[BantamAmy123]

I need help my hen lost her rooster awhile ago. We got her a new rooster but they did not get along so now she lives with me. I don’t want her to be lonely can I get her a friend?

Any certain bantam breeds that get along well with other breeds I have a Sebright

I would make sure the friend(s) are the same age or size. Just to make sure they don't get picked on.

I agree, go for the same size bird but definitely get her a friend.
It’s great to have you here

If you just have the one hen, maybe you would consider having her as a house chicken.
Please check out "people with house chickens." You would become her buddy. Some chickens really blossom as house pets. People tend to treat them better than the feathered flock mates.

How can I get them to get along

Welcome! We are glad you joined our flock!
Jump right in and make yourself at home.
Time. Give them plenty of time to get to know each other with "look but no touching."
Do you have some hardware cloth where you could build a wall between them?
