we have 2 new pullets we are working on slowly introducing to our existing flock of 5. They are about 8 weeks old. We noticed one is always sitting on top of the other. The other one doesn’t seem to mind, but it’s weird! Is it a dominance thing or do we maybe have a Roo? I have a video I tried to attach but I can’t figure out how
 
Sounds more like a comfort thing. Chicks pile when stressed. Two chicks means a small pile, which is basically one on top of the other.
Thank you! It was when they were out in the divided run separated from the other large hens, but they possibly still felt more exposed than being in their own separate little coop
