They probably will do at first untill the pecking order is established and then there will be the odd squable at the feeding stations.

Think it might be an idea to sort the fox issues out before getting any more 

Then yes as JF says once the pecking order is sorted then they should be ok

[lovechickens]

your right thanks xxxxxx

sorry to nab your thread but when introducing new hens is it ok to just introduce one and is it best doing it in the evening when they are roosting.   Nickyx

Hi nicky, best to do it at night yes, but not just one hen as that runs the risk of being picked on by all the rest, introduce two so that they share the bullying, they will aslo pair off together as friends

Yep!  they need to sorty out their pecking order.
