Re: [CHICKENS-101] Adding a new chicken

 

Are there other roosters?  If so, they are making sure he knows he gets NO hens and probably won't even be allowed to crow.  If the older birds are all hens, they'll come around as he matures.   Can you pen him with just a couple of docile hens for a while?

Hi
I bought one new chicken (an immature Wyandotte rooster?) to add to my flock.  Any suggestions for integrating him into the flock.  All the others pick on him.  They're older by 3 or 4 months.

Thanks,
