Chirping
We have two older (3 yrs) hens left over from our last flock - they haven't laid eggs in well over three months - probably more like 4 or 5. We are brooding 6 new hens now and they will be ready for the great outdoors in about two weeks. My dilemma is that I think the older hens will terrorize and bully the new chicks and I don't want that for obvious reasons. So is there a way to integrate the two old ones with the 6 new ones? I have read about integrating younger chicks into an older flock but never the opposite. I don't want to cull the older ones but if I have to I will.
