I hope this is in the right forum. If not, please let me know. I have been reading posts for a few days now, I just love this site. In fact, this is my first post ever!!
Anyway, this has to do with my new EE's. You see, all my other chicks are a month older than they are, and I'm having a problem introducing them to the flock. Everyone seems to want to pick on the new chicks. I have them in a little 'play pen', but when I let them in with my other chicks, the fight is on!! The older chicks and pretty rough on them. How can I make the introduction a little easier on the new babies?? They have a large run and hen house. Space isn't a issue,,Thanks!!!
The chicks are 4 months old, and 3 months, so they are close in size,,,,
