Can you raise bantam chicks with large fowl chicks?

I got all my chicks on the same day and for being one of the first customers they gave me five free chicks, which included one tiny bantam. I put it in with the others and it has done great. A couple times my standard chicks actually got picked on so I had to put them in a separate brooder to heal and I put the bantam in with them to keep them company. Because the bantam is little I didn't worry about it picking on the injured. All my chicks love the bantam and I love having it because it makes the perfect buddy when one has to be quarantined.

I have standard and bantys (always have). Never had had a problem. Even the standard roosters leave my banty hens alone which is a good thing... I love bantys they are the sweetest little birds...and they make great mothers.

We have a banty that just jatched out 5 eggs and only 2 were hers.  The other three were standard BR, and EE.  Whent they hatched, we also gave her 2 standard size blue cochins.  They are all doing great together.  I will admit that I was a tad worried about the 2 little ones, but they are fiesty and fit right in.  They are 11 days now.

 

I've also raised bantams with reg size chicks - no issues. In fact, now that they are all grown up I'd have to say the bantams rule the hen house :)

I'm brooding a mix of 22 birds with 8 of them being bantams right now. Two of the bantams are the dominant birds in the brooder, no the golden comet pullets which are two weeks older than the banties. You'll be fine. Just keep an eye out for picking and you'll be good to go.

bantam and standard can be brooded together just fine. I have done it on several different occasions and it worked out without any harm done to the bantam chicks. I currently have standard cochin and a silkie chick brooding together and they are the best of friends. they are in the same box, though sperated by rabbit wire, as my 5 week old LF brahmas (the cochin and silkie are only 1 week) and when I let them have some supervised time together even the older birds are pretty well behaved with them. Theres A LOT of different factors that go into who will get picked on (and somone almost always will), but from my expierience, bantams mixed with standard chicks is a-okay!

I ordered 2 standards and 5 bantys, so I was wondering the same thing. Is it true that the bantams sometimes pick ont the large fowl?

Yep, they're little spitfires sometimes.
