memphisto Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Sorry, I am really not with it today I collected my chocolate Orpingtons yesterday, they're settling nicely. They were in with the buff Orpingtons that are coming tomorrow afternoon, I didn't expect to get the Buffs as I only went for the chocolates and didn't have enough for the buffs as well and the chocolates. So....can I put them in together tomorrow, this sounds odd, will they remember each other or am I giving them human traits? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 You'll only know if you try it . As it's only been a day or so, they may well remember each other . Good luck . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 There may be some argy bargy as they tussle for top hen status, but hopefully it won't be as bad as if one pair had already got well established. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
memphisto Posted November 15, 2011 Author Share Posted November 15, 2011 Thanks both, you are stars I am going to try it....luckily, my Barred Rock and White Star, have, of their own accord, vacated their coop to move in with the big girls , this came about yesterday and was really suprised. That means I have vacant coop if things don't go to plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
