Hi would love some advice on Silkie introduction. One of my Silkie hens was killed by a hawk a week ago and my other hen was lonely. We wanted to get her a friend and could only find someone that was selling three Silkie hens. We put them in a cage next to her coop for a day and then introduced her to two of them who didn't seem as aggressive as the third (who we left in the pen) she was so happy! But she was letting one peck her in the head repeatedly so I took that hen and put it in the pen with the other. The third and her seem to be getting along just great, should I do the see but can't touch with the other two?
