Not sure which breeds to put togeter. Should I just put the Silkies in their own coop, and the other

[wvchix]

I have 2 Silkies in a coop right now with a Barred Rock and a New Hampshire.We just got 3 white Leghorns, 3 Red Sex Links, and 3 Araucaunas. We are building a new pen for the Silkies and possibly 3 of the new chicks. I was going to put the other 6 in with the other 2 hens. Of the 3 new chick beeds, which breed would you recommend putting with my Silkies, or should I put the Silkes in the new coop by themeves?

Just try to keep Bantams with Bantams and LF's with LF's.

You could put them in all together. They will establish a pecking order, then get on with their lives.

I have Barred Rocks, Buff Orpington, and New Hampshire Reds together.
