I'm noticing lots of chest bumping going on with 3 specific chicks, mostly when they're outside in their playpen. If any chicks happen to get too close to any of these 3 chicks, they kinda do this dance where they flap their wings and jump at each other with their little chests directed at the other. These chicks are just 12 days old. I have 8 chicks total.
Anyways, could I possible have 3 roos? If breed matters, two of the 3 chicks are Ameraucanas/Barred Rock and the third one is a pure bred Ameraucana.
I bought them all from a private breeder, and I didn't get the chicks until they were a few days old. I really hope those 3 chicks aren't roos, since they are the only ones out of the 8 that are fearless and don't mind being held. (Though they peck me sometimes :b)
Thoughts?
