Just to clear things up first hand, I'm not introducing any chicks yet(!) but I am curious about if I did decide to either buy some more chicks or incubate some eggs we have. Is there a certain way to introduce them that is safe and humane? Will one or more of the hens take them in? Do I need to change up the food? When we got our chicks we went through the chick starter, then starter and grower, and now they're on layer but do new chicks need to be fed separately or do we just mix the starter/grower with the layer food and everybody eats the same? Like I said chicks aren't in the near future but I was curious how other people do it?
