Last week the silkie chicks moved outside to live with their parents and step-sisters, all went well!"

Did they get along right away? I've never had silkies before.

They did actually, my silkie rooster is a wuss so he was actually a little scared of them and the other didn't seem to mind much, they pecked once or twice just to show dominance as expected but other than that no problems

That is great. I love it when flocks are peaceful like that.

Come to think of it, I also love roosters that are wusses.

Yup, me too. My poor rooster, the chicks were chasing him and he was running as fast as his fluffy legs could carry him, I had to rescue him
