introducing new chickens
« on: July 20, 2012, 10:07 »
hi,have 3 ex batts that settled in very easily together 4 weeks ago. have read that if you have more its best to have 2 at least so they are not the only newbie,is this correct.  also do they settle easier if they are the same colour,as quite like the look of the bluebelle ones. thanks,sue.

Doesn't matter about colour, but you would need to quarantine new chooks for a couple of weeks first. Expect a new pecking order.
