I have some chicks..19 to be exact..I have some Australurps and some Issa Browns...the Issa browns look a decent bit bigger than the Australurps...they do have some feathers because they are trying to fly around now. I have them in my storage building in a big puppy playpen with a top on it...I've been scared to put them outside because of predators such as rats and snakes. I live in the southeast where the average is anywhere from 70-95 in the summertime. Do you think it would be okay to put these babies in with my adult birds? I Have three standard-size chickens in one coop(its a 10x16 coop and a coop with a few bantams...none of the chickens are aggressive at all. I intend to build them another coop later on. I know that I've read that bigger chickens cant get along with baby chicks...but I've also read that the bigger rooster would protect the smaller birds? Any help would be appreciated.
