Newish chicken owner

[jimmccoy67]

I got three Azure blues in April, they have been laying almost 3 months. I then inherited three younger ones who are already bigger than the azures but not laying yet and get picked on by the established hens. One hen gets broody but a stay or two in chicken jail cures her! I recently opened up the fence between the two groups. Any advice for making them get along? Also can anyone ID this breed?

Hello Jum, and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.

You need much better pictures for breed identification. How much space do you have in the run for these birds? How much space is in the coop? You need a lot of space, clutter and multiple feed and water stations in the run for a smooth integration.

Greetings & Salutations. Welcome.

Some pictures of different angles/body parts will help as well. Also, if you can get less of the wire in the pic. I know it's difficult many times.
