I have 6 warren hens about 8 months old ,and would like a few ex-battery hens but am worried my girls would bully them .
Is this correct and if so what could i do to ease the situation

Yes, it's sometimes good news, sometimes bad, but not normally too ugly!

Some may say I'm a little firm, but I only interfere if I really have to. They have their ways and it has to be done and so on.

I've introduced countless chickens and haven't had to separate once - yet!!
The very best way is to put them in the Coop at night and wait for the "ai ai, where did they come from? Oh well, breakfast time".
