Oh no not again!
The saga continues! I let Brunhild out with the other hens this morning but soon found Fricka jumping on her and pecking at her neck. I managed to grab the offender and she is now doing time in the house!
The other hens seem reasonably tolerant of Brunhild, although the bossier one was taking blades of grass from her (as if there wasn’t enough to go around!).
By late afternoon she was rather wet looking but not harmed so she is in the hen house tonight and I hope tomorrow they will embrace her rather more enthusiastically. At least it may not be so wet and sleety.
Fricka will stay in and I will see how it goes outside before deciding to put her back.
Really I have never had so much bother with a couple of new hens!!
