Re-introducing sick chicken
« on: February 27, 2010, 10:22 »
We've just had one of our four exbats in the house for three days convalescing, when we try to re-introduce her to the others one of them goes into attack mode. Should we just let them get on with it?

Try putting her in with the others when it dark, find an empty place on the perch and in a way plonker her down,the other hens should'nt really notice much. Just make sure your there at first light so no blood is drawn, with plenty of space and a few hiding places she'll be fine, try placing another feeder and water bowl down in a different place to limit the squabbles.
