We bought our 5 chicks at the hardware store on May 9th. They're probably 6/7 weeks old by now. This weekend they're moving out to the coop.
I keep reading threads about pecking order. Is it an obvious thing to see? I'll sit & watch them in their brooder and they all seem to get along just fine (i.e. no one is beating up one another).
Maybe they figured it out during their stay at the hardware store. They were the last 5 available and had maybe been there as a group for a while.
I apologize if this has been asked 3,485 times. I did a search but got lazy after a while. Thanks!
