I have 17 chicks in one brooder and 20 in another. Mix of standard and bantams.
My husband has put the brooder boxes end to end and each end is a “window” of chicken wire so these chicks can see each other but not touch. The windows can then slide up and out of the way so the two brooders can become one big brooder.
Do 2 and 3 week old chicks have a pecking order? What should I expect trying to integrate these ages? I need them integrated before they go out into the coop because they will be together out there.
