Little Roo went strong all day and then I noticed that he was just standing around! So, I brought him in, gave him another dose of Corid and some electrolytes...he's now sleeping in my lap! I am dosing all of the chicks with Corid, I don't want anymore sick babies!
I moved the French Black Copper Marans to the coop today! My son gave me an animal fence and I'm using it to keep the littles in and hopefully the bigger ones out, until they have gotten used to each other! 2 - 2.5 weeks makes a big difference in size! They all seem quite curious about each other. I'm thinking that when they have hit 4 weeks, I will let them join the other chicks...hopefully they integrate smoothly! It's supposed to be hard to tell if you have Roo's or hens at this age, but I'm pretty certain that I have 2 Roos, 1 hen and I'm thinking the other is a hen, but her comb is a little bigger than the other hen, but not as pink as the roo's. Time will tell, I hope I have two hens!
A video of the meet and greet, I was talking which I don't usually do, I was trying to coax the older chicks in!

Here's a video I took just to record their songs. I have no idea how many types of birds were in there, but I do know that it's more than one!
