Thanks...that's a lot of info! I do need to spread them out a bit, at this point, I'm thinking of moving these three girls to their own brooder space very soon.

Alaskan, you obviously have lots of experience with this breed, so I have a question. It seems to me (so far) that if they could, it would be these three girls who formed a biker gang... they are the rowdy ones in the brooder. Is that to be expected from this breed?
