Adding chicks to guineas in a brooder...

[Stormimay]

good or bad idea? I have 9 guineas I hatched from eggs, they are one week old tomorrow. Wednesday I am getting Ameracuana chicks, about 3 weeks old. Can I put them in the brooder with the keets? The brooder is plenty big enough; I just don't want to have fights, etc.

You can put them together.

I have chicks and keets together in the brooder right now. A two week separation in age shouldn't be a problem.
