Hi all -
We found out one of our four pullets is likely a cockerel, and I was able to find another pullet of exactly the same age and breed to add to our group (our roo will need to be relocated soon, since we're in town). I will likely quarantine for a little while before adding her to our little group (how long do you all recommend?) - but otherwise, do you think there will be squabbles? Or are they still "chick" enough to go with the flow? I don't want to just drop her in to the brooder box if she's going to be pecked and harassed.
Thanks!
