So the new hens have been here for about 50 hours now and the worst of the "fowl" language has stopped. The ladies are starting to get along. Today we let all the hens meet face to face. There was no fighting or even feather fluffing, just a bit of squawking and pecking. Red (the hen that is outside the cage in the photo), decided that she could go into the new ladies' cage, but they couldn't come out. We'll let them mingled supervised again tonight. Hopefully by the end of the weekend they will all be friends :)
