I have 2 chicks around 4 weeks old and 2 chics around 3 weeks old. Got one more chic today that is brand new. Is it okay to [ut new baby in with other 4 chicks? they are pecking at it some. TIA

YOU CAN TRY TO PUT THEM TOGETHER THEY WILL ESTABLISH A PECKING ORDER. JUST KEEP WATCH THAT IT DOES NOT GET TOO VIOLENT. A LITTLE PECKING AND CHASING IS FINE. MORE THAN THAT SEPARATE THEM.

Thank you! I am keeping an eye on them and they seem to be doing some better with the new baby!
