I have 4 2 year old polish hens and 4 3.5 week old chicks. I’ve never introduced chickens before so when it’s warm I’ve been bringing the chicks outside to get some fresh air and forage a little and get some exposure to the hens. First time I brought them out the hens ran over and looked at them through the dog pen for a minute then left. I’ve been putting them in a run while the hens free range and they couldn’t care less. They don’t even go near the run. When I lure them over with treats they eat and pay zero attention to the babies even when the babies are interested and come closer to the fence. I’m assuming this is a good sign?
