I have 2 broodys raising 10 chicks (2wks old tomorrow) ,a broody with 2 chicks (hatched the 6th and the 8th) and another with 3 eggs(looks like only one of those is going to hatch)
The 2 babies and mom got out of the cage yesterday and when I found out I went looking for them and the 3 broodys and all 12 chicks where happy and forging and the 2wks old act like the babies where always there.
I have heard bad stories with older chicks attacking younger ones. Is it that their with moms, have lots of room, or are just too young to be mean?
