This is not telling you what to do...
Just my thoughts..
So if you do it and they all fly away it is Not my fault. smiling smiley
If it were my little flock, I would keep them in for 3 days and then let them out and establish their routine without the 'girls'. I don't know how long a gee brain can retain 'memory' or 'routine', but they do get over missing mates. They are still teenagers, so I would think the outside world will make them give alarm calls for a leaf blowing suddenly, a stick laying in their way...etc. But they will calm down as they get their pecking order in place.
I would also replace the girls, with more of my presence..more treats time..?
Good luck.
