I am getting sussex and australorp chicks in 2 days and am totally freaking out
I've only got experience with silkies and don't know how fast these chickens grow? Do disposable boxes work as temporary "homes"? Can I use sugar cane mulch as bedding?
I have to go to Malaysia in 1 month and 2 weeks and am not sure if the chicks will be old enough to live outside by then as currently they are only a day old...
I'm worried that they might get bullied by the silkies or worse, raped by the silkies! Can this happen? Does anybody know how noisy sussexes and australorps are, in comparison to silkies? Right now I have no noise pollution issues but in the event of me getting a rooster..............
thanks
