Can these 2 breeds live together???

[Kat's Silly Chickens]

We just got 2 Silkies chicks, and have 2 Sultans (1 is a baby, the other is 5 wks old) Are Sultans ok with silkies in the same aviary? I hope so, they will need to live together, we only have room for the 2 Silkies and 2 Sultans in the indoor aviary we're making.

Let me know,
Thank you,

I don't see any problem with it... What exactly are you worried about?

We know Silkies have a soft spot on their head, and our other 5 birds are LF.
The 5 wk/o Sultan is what we are unsure of, will it hurt the silkies (5 d/o) establishing pecking order?
We have them in separate cages right now.

They should be ok after a day or so..

So say in a week when we transfer the 6 wk/o out to the coop we should be able to put the 2 silkies and bantam sultan in with the older standard sultan and we won't have much of a problem.

Thank you for your help,
