I have 6, 1 week old chicks that I bought from MPC and since it's chick day at the tractor store is it a BAD idea to get one and mix it with my 6?
I asked a question about adding some and the response was that it would be okay for up to about 2 weeks or so. But most tractor supply have a 6 chick minimum so you would have to buy 6 more chicks. Dont know if you want 12 chicks
It's okay if the size difference isn't too bad, just stick with full sized chicks and you should be okay. (banties can get picked on when they are new and mixed with standards) Let me recommend getting two from the feed store, so it has a friend.
