Hello all! Advise needed!
I have 23 chickens , and apart from them I have a lonely 4 month old hen, she was a group of 3, but 2 were roosters, and have been rehomed, so how is the best way to introduce her?? I was thinking of adding another hen or 2 with her, and then introducing them as a group, but if I do that, should I try to introduce a pullet her age, or will any hen work?
For my two cents....you need to pull a few of your girls out of the flock and introduce your loner to them first....when those 3/4 are settled you can introduce them all to the flock....adding a single to 20 chooks is not fair to the single bird who will be challenged by every other bird.....my two cents.
