General curiosity about Chicks

[Larafamilychickens]

Hi,

I got 3 different breeds for my first flock Cinnamon Queens, Buff Rock, and Sapphire Gem. It seems like the Cinnamon Queens are getting feathers much faster than the rest of the flock. is it possible that these chicks are older and should I separate them?

I think different breeds do tend to feather out at different rates but based on the photo there is no reason to separate them.

You can keep chicks of different ages together. Usually 1-2 weeks difference is ok. Good luck! You have 3 friendly breeds that should give you lots of eggs!

Thank You! That is the goal, as I have small children who LOVE chick season.
