So, we are in the process of starting our backyard flock. We ordered 5 chicks from mypetchicken that will arrive the beginning of May. We have a family member who has 10 pullets that will begin laying in about a month or so. She offered to sell us some. We don't want a huge flock. But if we get 2 pullets in the next couple of months, then get 5 chicks in May, that will end up out in the coop in June sometime, how well will everyone get along? Is this a good idea, or should we maybe just stick with what we ordered? It'd be nice to have at least a few eggs a week throughout the summer. Thanks!
