Egluntyne Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 I'd get them all at the same time to lessen the chances of one being picked on by the established 3. However, if you have 4, unless they are going to free range for long periods each day, you will need to extend the run, as they will be too crowded if confined all day, and may start to squabble. Good luck and welcome to the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
