Thank you for all of your great advice! The three older hens all huddle to one end of the 6'6" bar, so I'd think there would be plenty of room, but the pullets are pretty skittish. I got them as 12-week-old pullets and did not hand raise them, so they're not very calm. I also have three 7-week-old chicks that I did raise myself (couldn't convince my boys we didn't need chicks this year, haha). I was thinking about introducing them soon. Should I give the two older pullets more time to settle in before adding more craziness? They have been sharing a fence line for more than a week, so they somewhat "know" each other.
