Only one chick hatched from our batch of incubated eggs so now we have a lonely little chick who needs some friends. I'm on the search for female chicks with similar age but availability is rather limited. I have found a seller with chicks that are coming up 2 weeks old and don't know if this is a good idea or not. I'm still waiting for replies from some other suppliers with hopefully younger chicks but I'm worried the longer we leave it our chick will struggle integrating with them. What is the maximum age gap for new chickens that we could have for our 3 day old chick? We were going to get two chicks but if they are older, is it riskier that they could bully and attack our chick? Thank you!
