Hatching bantam and standard size chicks together in brinsea mini advance??

[diamond8s]

Is this ok to do? Or will the big guys stomp on the little guys? Anyone have any experience?

I've read where people hatch regular eggs with quail eggs, so I presume you can have a mix of eggs hatch together. The problem I had when I hatched eggs a few weeks ago was the chicks pecked on each other, specifically on the newer chicks. They were curious only. I moved the newly hatched chicks to a very warm brooder box and put a small empty strawberry box on top of the new chicks to keep the older chicks from stomping and pecking on the new ones until they are dry and strong enough to join the others. Good luck with your hatch.

Thank you for the advice!
