[CHICKENS-101] introducing a new, adult chicken

 

hi,
 
it's me again...
 
i am guessing that if you get one new chicken to add to 5 hens and 1 rooster that there is an introduction procedure to use so they don't fight?
 
any help, to once again, avoid chicken disaster, would be very much appreciated.
 
thanks,
virginia
 
p.s. we lost all but one guinea fowl.  the whole flock, except that one who thought it was a chicken or something and always stayed with the chickens, wandered away into the scrub weeds, right where the fox family lives.  it is the season to teach the kits how to hunt.  i suspect the hawk family helped, we lost 10 in one day.  we found a few piles of feathers, it was awful.
