Introducing new chickens to old flock
I will be doing the same thing in a few weeks... my chicks are about 10 weeks old and they are in seperate coop than our older chickens. We started out with 4 buff hens and a buff rooster (they are all about 2 years old) and this year we decided to get many more chicks to have a big flock ...- chix4chance
