Hi. I am a newbie to chicks. been reading a lot and lurking on this web site for a while so I thought I should come out. My Husband has always wanted back yard chickens but I was always afraid I would kill them . We live in North Pole Alaska and we have lots of weather challenge, and also in the winter with not so much light of day. But then our summers are gorgious but not much dark. This will definately be a challenge for me
I got my first chicks yesterday. they were 3 days old. 1 RIR, 1 Australorp and 1 Ameraucana. My DH works a camp job so i wanted chickens that would be friendly and ones that I wanted
so, on to my question. they all seem happy and the Australorp loves to be held but i noticed that the RIR likes to kind of pick on the Ameraucana. is this normal? should i seperate them? I don't want to start out with a fight!
