Title: can my hens go back together yet??
Post by: crosser on July 14, 2011, 11:35:55 pm

ive got one bantam hen with 6 week old chicks and another bantam with 2 6 week old runner ducks..  there penned off seperatly at the moment but do you think its to early for them to go all in together now???  is a large area of 60ft by 100ft so plenty of space to escape from each other..

I'd give it as long as the hens are willing. You can tell when they are desperate to get out and go with the others. :&>
