I had our silkies seperated from the main flock of Houdans for a while, mainly because they were "too cute to spend all day outside." according to popular opinion. hehe
When the time came for me to push the issue and insist they get intergrated to the flock it went pretty darn smooth.
In fact it went exactly opposite from what I expected.
We have 5 silkies, 2 roos and three hens. I thought the roos would get spunky and try to be dominant or the two houdan roos would just attack them.
Neither happend.
What did happen was the silkie girls took over everything. They claimed the main food trough, the nearby waterers, and when too many houdan girls came and put up a good fight the boys finally stepped up the plate. Rather nervously I might add.
Before this the oldest hen was a terror outside. No one could sleep, eat, or get water without written permission and a tribute dance.
I really thought she was a rooster, and still do even after she laid an egg.
Our two girls, little silkie girls, are the major players outside. Its quite funny to see.
You never really know what will happen with chickens.
The 4 silkies that run the show usually (who knows what next month will bring)
Always quarentine, then use the time to get to know more about your chicken and introduce accordinly.
Good luck~
