So, I recently(last sunday) added a 8 month old barred rock to my flock of 3 month old RIRs(only 2). The past 2 nights i noticed the rock chicken on the roost sleeping and the other 2 sleeping snuggled in the egg laying box.
I do have golf balls in there...What do I do? I don't want the barred rock to lay an egg and have these 2 eat it since they are sleeping in there. How do I stop this from happening? Do you think they don't want to sleep by the older chicken? There is no pecking going on but the younger ones are much less mature.
Help! I don't want poop on my eggs! lol
