    Experience with chick personality and temperament changes?

    First time raising chicks here! I have nine growing, and since I am not going to be keeping most of them I've been honing in on my criteria for the keepers. Temperaments and personality are one of the big deciding factors as to which of them I keep, so I wanted to hear from folks who have more...
