broiler chick's and other chickens?

[mruedy10]

2 weeks ago I bought 30 broiler chickens for a little hobby and going to Butcher them at 8 weeks or so for the meat. Well I have a coop and an outdoor pen for an Americana hen and a rooster that I am not sure what kind he is. But I didn't know when the broiler chick's get too big for the brooder if when I take them outside if the hen and the rooster will take kindly to the smaller chickens I surely don't want the broilers getting killed. Should I make another coop and pen specifically for the broilers?

Alright

great to have you joining the BYC flock

BYC has a very useful learning center

Yes as Broilers are not fighters and really sleep on the ground

Hello and Welcome To BYC! X2, you will probably need to keep them separate. You might like to check out the BYC Meat Birds forum www.backyardchickens.com/f/21/meat-birds-etc
