    Can a pecking order exist between two chickens?

    What breed are my 2 chicks?

    Hello!! :) I got my two baby girls (9 days old today!) from my science lab. We were studying animal behaviour and we were allowed to keep them. I'm just wondering, what breed are these chicks? :) Also, will the yellow chick grow up into a red hen or a white hen? They are absolutely adorable
