muzzboy Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Hi everyone have had the morehens disease and had a old english to go with my silkies and Sussex, lady's seen to be fine with each other but my cockeral is the one that seems to be the aggressive one with her not much pecking but a Chase off here and there is this normal and they will settle their differences or should I have gone for a different breed thanks muzzboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
percy049 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 It is not recommended that you only introduce one hen. Ideally, they should be separated for about 3-5 days before they are put together in the same run. Make sure that there are at least 2 feed/water bowls, so your 'newbie' can still eat and drink.

muzzboy Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 Did not know that hope it will all work out I have been keeping an eye on them today and it only happened a few times but they are all in the coop tonight ready for bed so fingers crossed for tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
