Recommended Posts

I currently have a Bluebell and a gingernut ranger and my husband would love a light sussex. Would the 3 fit into an eglu happpily and as long as we introduced her slowly what is the chance of sucsess in getting them to all get along? Thanks for your help, Fingers crossed the other half doesn't check the boards! :?

You can introduce one, but it takes a while - an extended run would definitely be worth while. If you could block off the ends of the extension temporarily and securely, you could use it separately as an introductory pen - putting the newbie in to sleep with the others at night - and then attach it when they all go together.

 

Slowly, slowly is the best advice on intros!
