The chicks are three months old and are only about half as big as their mom. How much bigger do you think they'll get? Their dad was a silkie/cochin mix and their mom is a buff orpington. They were all eating layer crumbles and I just started trying to feed them meat bird crumbles. We have other chickens that are about five or six months old now and they always peck at them. I know this is the pecking order and that it is normal but we already have a rooster and he's getting big and we aren't planning on getting rid of him for a while. Also, do you think that they are boys or girls? I have no idea. If there's a better thread for this please tell me.
