    Silkie rooster with chicks

    I bought a silkie rooster today from a girl in my hometown. He came when 6 chicks that aren’t his but he’s been around a lot. Well he’s letting the chicks which are about 2 months old sleep under him. He’s keeping them warm. Is this normal? Or do I just have a sweet rooster?
