happy_monday1984 Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 (edited) This is a bit naughty but.... severe morehens struck!! Introducing Maggie May (RIR, 18wks) and Eliza Doolittle (Speckled Sussex, 14wks Introductions went very smoothly, I was prepared for all hell to break loose, had spare hutch etc at the ready but the new girls just integrated straight in - is this normal?! All friends together after just one day, and they all toddled off to bed together as soon as dusk hit Happy times!

happy_monday1984 Posted December 2, 2011 Author Share Posted December 2, 2011 Thanks everyone for your lovely comments, I am completely smitten with them all! Maggie May is soooo friendly... What pretty new girls,its strange how some just fit right in and others take weeks to fit in??Such pretty pretty girls It really is strange, I was totally expecting complete warfare to break out but we've had barely even a raised feather! We had them in a pen up next to the older girls who made a couple of long "bokkkkkk" noises then the newbies escaped into the others' FR area and everyone got along famously! certainly no more than the usual posturing from top hen Jethro... Maybe they're all a bit more laid back as noone is in lay? Maybe it's just one of those things... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

memphisto Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Lovely hens you have! My girls have always been great with intros, they've always pretty much integrated straightaway, although my flock in complete now. However, sometimes there is handbags at dawn sometimes with them even now! Enjoy your new girls! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tracyann Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 What pretty girls... Speckled Sussex seem popular at the mo. Let's hope there are lots of hatching eggs around in the spring!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
