Raising Chicks

[Victoria E. Catalina]

I have 3 Ameracauna babies, after 2 months, i decided to join my adults with the babies,Now they are as big as the adults and are still getting pecked on by my Sussex.Only one gets pecked but sometimes they are hard to tell the difference. All the babies are triplets.

Chickens always peck each other for some odd reason I had the same problem with my rhode island red and Cochin and the rhode island red pecks some of my chicks also but they are a nice size so it doesn't hurt them too bad

Yes that is normal,they will get treated better once everyone is laying and more equal mentally.
