New chooks and the cold??

Post: # 211685Post NaturalBlue »

Hi, just wanting some opinions!
We lost one of our hens a few weeks ago now and the children are really keen to get some more as we know only have 2 left.
My question though is.... Is this a good time to introduce new hens when their spending so much time 'indoors' or might it be better to wait till spring when they would have more space to suss each other out?

Thanks :icon_smile:
...um, how can I make that?...
