Hi everyone I have just introduced two belgium d 'uccles to my mixed flock and was wondering how long to keep them in the run before allowing them to free range with the rest of the flock.
 
If you're still trying to introduce them, wait about a week before they can get along with the others in the run. Then once the new chickens know where their home is, where they sleep at night, you can keep an eye on them as they free range with the others and get into the swing of things.
 
Are they getting along in the coop and run?
How old are the new birds and how long have you had them?
They are four months old and I introduced them a week ago .they are getting along with the older birds but are a squitish when the cats and dog are around the run.
