keyhole kate Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Okay Guys YD's silkie,pilkie,frizzle have been with us since October they are in seperate accomodation but I have allowed them to FR when the big girls are out with omlet netting between they never seem to take any notice of each other so today I braved it I put the littlies over the fence with the big girls all there has been is the odd chase but so violence or bloodshed now here is the dilema do I (a) let them go in with the big girls tonight (b) put them back into there seperate accomodation and FR them as and when for a few more days especially as I am off work from Wed on holiday © Is the cube big enough for 9 biggies and 3 littlies with 4m of run Help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tutti Frutti Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I'd say (b). If you try (a)... well the littlies are little and might not be able to defend themselves. But only you can decide, you know your chooks (and I know mine, hence b!!!). Don't know about ©, sorry! Glad it went well today, that's promising Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coco Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I'd go for b especially as you have time next week for lots of supervised FR togethert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Looks like I don't need to say it ... but b If you can be with them from Wed it'll make things better than they are now, so reducing the risk of anyone getting hurt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I'd go for B, but in a few more days/weeks try integrating the little ones into the cube once the bigger ones are dozy and have gone to roost, then take them back out again in the morning. Continue with this for a few more days and then fully integrate them and see where they go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keyhole kate Posted January 30, 2010 Author Share Posted January 30, 2010 Thanks Guys I know your right I put the littlies back in there own ickle house tonight and I will be home to supervise FR for 2 weeks hopefully by the end of it I will have them all in together Of course as I explained to DH it means he will have to get cracking on my WIR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancing cloud Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I would go with (b) and I'm sure © will be fine. When it was very cold all 9 of mine slept in the and there was plenty of room to spare . Wishing you all the best for a peaceful integration Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
