I have two silkies.........they are about 8 months old, maybe....not sure (I just got them about a week ago)
Is it OK to put the silkies in together with my other hens.........I do not have any roosters. I had them in with the other chickens for a few days but they seemed scared. Other hens did not seem to bother them a whole lot.......looked at them funny for a bit and picked at them a little, but when I checked on them the next day, they were both huddled in the corner looking scared. So, I took them out but now I want to put them back in if possible. It is easier to maintain them all in the same area.
Any advice is appreciated.
