Ok I ordered 6 blue pekin HAtching eggs , it's day 21 today and the other day I candles them and only 1 is fertile for sure so I went out and brought 1 blue and 1 black pekin to go with this one when it hatches they were a day old , there now 4 days old , the fertilebegg I've named the chick UNO will he/she be alright to go in with these other 2 or will they bully him? Thanks

chicks younger than one week old should be fine put in the same brooder with each other. I have put chicks one day up to two weeks old in the same brooder with no problems.

Congrats ! I have had great and some ugly times combing extrachicks of different ages . But I can usually tell with in ten minutes if they are a good fit : ) they sure let ya know fast .. they either snuggle or peck and get all riled up ..
