I am planning on getting a few chicks from a couple of different breeders at roughly the same time. Assuming conditions and birds look good at the breeders', is it necessary to isolate each batch of chicks from one another, or can chicks be put together at an early age without concern? I'm only thinking 3-4 chicks from a couple of different breeders, so it would be nice if I could keep them in the same brooder area. Obviously they will not be added to the rest of the gals until they are big girls, so that's not a problem, I just wondered about whether I need to quarantine babies from one another?
I tend to be extra cautious, so if this is a silly question, I apologize in advance.
Thanks!
