    Introducing full size chicks to Bantam adults???

    I have six chicks that I will be introducing to my 5 adult Bantams when the chicks are of proper age. My question is, is there a key time to do this since the birds will be much larger than my Bantys? The chicks are 2 RIR, 2 SLW and 2 WLH.

    Introducing youngins to adults :)

    I Have 5 Bantam adults and 6 baby full size chickens(2 weeks old). When is the best introduction age for these little ones? My adults are 1 Rooster 4 hens. Just wondering if introduction is different because of breed size. My Bantams are very docile sweet birds. Thanks!

    Leghorn chick tail feathers..

    First time for white leghorn chicks. They are 9 days old and their tail feathers are pretty big! or at least distinct. is this typical of the breed? my other chicks, RI Reds, and Wyandottes don't have the tails like that... or at least not yet. :0) Having so much fun with them though. Thanks!

    New to this... behavior question?

    Have six new chicks... one week old and one of the leghorns is acting like it is trying to crow? Nothing comes out of course. Don't laugh but I was worried he was choking or something....They are all supposed to be hens. Any thoughts on this? I have SOOOOOmuch to learn! :0)
