Integrating chicks

[joedie]

I have 17 chicks 3,4, & 5 wks old in a caged brooder in the coop for the past 2 weeks with the 13 wk old pullets. I let the little ones out into the coop twice a day and lock the big girls out in the run for a few hours at a time. When can I let them mix together?

How many 13 week olds do you have? I think that makes a difference.

Are they getting along when you let thm out?

I'm very curious about this myself...I have 2 silkies (that are way smaller then my other chicks) and 2 nearly full grown chicks that have been in the coop/run during they day.

I need to get all four seeing each other and am really excited to see what people suggest for you
