    Putting my chicks with my laying hens?

    Thank you, they have their feathers, so they should be warm enough, should we just monitor them at first? And go from there?

    Breed? Male? Female? Help?

    This is my sister's chicken, we've been calling "him" Freddie, but after some research we're starting to believe "he" is actually a "she." And when we bought "him" they said he was a Silkie, but now we're thinking he may be a Polish. Could somebody help us?
