I am stupidly feeling really bad about it to the point of having stupid nightmares.

Be happy for him, for having more girls of his own.
Be happy for your older hens for a more peaceful life.
Be happy for yourself knowing this is the best.
I visited my older brother yesterday who lives in a village in the South of NL. He made a coop and run last summer and bought 4 laying hybrids at Pol. Now he has 4 eggs each day. This is what many BYC-keepers choose in the Netherlands.
The 4 hens all look the same. Like Blanche but with more white feathers between the brown. His chickens and run are very different from mine.
Advised him to plant a few bushes for shelter, and birds of prey. The fence is not safe at all for foxes or dogs. Just enough hight to keep the chickens inside. On the other hand, they have a lot of run space. About 10x15 meters.
Forgot to take a photo
