About two weeks ago, I got two new four week old bantam chicks - what I did was put them in a large dog carrier in the coop so my other 12 would acclimate themselves to the new chickies. Once or twice they got out and of course it was a huge pile drive on top of them, but everyone backed off and went back to their respective perches until I got them under control. Today, DH made a sectioned off part in the coop with chicken wire for them. I promptly put the two in there and went to a wedding. Well, came home and they got out and were roosting with the other 12 pullets. So, in everyone's opinion, do you think they are OK now? I know normally to wait about thirty days, but if they are roosting together would they be OK?
