Have you had success rehoming a hen? Our Opal Legbar has been bullied the whole time since the establishment of this flock. The rooster has injured her terribly, and she is recovering in our shop. We had been discussing whether to send her to friends of ours with Isa browns … in hopes she can...

Thank you that article was very helpful

hmmm interesting, I really wanted to do light at the beginning and end of the day, but everything I had read up until this point said to put it on the am side so they could naturally roost and not be confused by a light all of a sudden turning off? Thanks i will try your suggestions.
