Sorry about the quality of this picture, more of a eureka moment for me as the "flock" finally accepted my newcomer Prince. He is 2-3 weeks younger than the rest and the first 5 days he was getting bullied badly, they refused to let him eat or drink but I gave him a small hiding spot that only he could reach and he could watch them.
After the first day I wanted to remove him as he was getting bullied so bad but that made him cry for 3 hours straight so I placed him back and he was chirpy as ever again (even though he got shooed into hiding straight away)
Well I have some new chicks on the way but he was being too lonely by himself till then (also taking up space) so I am glad they have accepted him. Still some squabbling going on and he is half their size so he still has to take cover but getting there and he is growing by the day now, just 2 more weeks and he's be the same size as the rest.
