Hi everyone. This is my first post on this great site. I am in Manchester, England.
Have got 3 ex battery hens and 3 black silkies, 2 are miniature.
The problem is that the big girls dominate one of the miniatures in the coop and often sit on her in the nest boxes. The ex batts tend to sleep in nest boxes as they have never roasted. I have 2 coops so should I let the silkies have the smaller one?
Have had the silkies for about a month and the big girls since May.
Any advice gratefully received.
Thanks so much
