New Hampshire Red Experience

[redneckchickens]

Was just wondering what everyone's experience was with New Hampshire red with other breeds of chickens? I only have 1 pullet that is a New Hampshire Red and 1 Partridge Plymouth rock ..and a bunch of baby Orpingtons and a few Golden Sexlinks (If they hatch). So my question is will everyone get along do you think? because I have read that NHR can be aggressive.. original plan was going to be to keep some separate from each other.. thoughts/suggestions? Thanks

I have NHR's and they get along great with everyone they were raised with but DO NOT like my baby bantams I am trying to introduce. I like them personally but opinions vary. I think if they are raised with your other chickens from fairly young that they will do great.

im guessing she is roughly 6wks old and is with 2 other 6weeks old orpingtons at the moment

I bet she does great!

Our first four were a RIR, NHR, Black Australorp and Black Star. Never had any fights, they all did great. My NHR does not seem aggressive at all.

Great! Like I said never had a NHR and new to the chicken world just wanna make I have a good combination I don't want anyone getting hurt. ..Thanks for the help
