I have 9 - 14 month old chickens and then I have 20 - 11 week olds. They have been in seperate coops and runs with wire and a gate inside and outside. So they see each other trough the wire. I want to open the outside gate and see if they mingle together. Is it best to do this late in the afternoon or morning time?
Hens go broody when you don’t want them to… and won’t go broody when you do.
