In the Brooder
Hi,
I got two chicks 2 weeks ago and am ready to add 4 more day-old chicks to the brooder. What is the best way to do this? Should I let the new checks get acclimated to their new home (without the two-week chicks present) and then introduce them to the two-week old chicks? Or, should I add the new chicks directly into the brooder with the two-week old chicks already in there. I want to prevent as much bullying as possible, as the two-week old girls are already pretty set in their ways.
Thanks!
