Is it wise to put week old chicks with a 4 week old? I was told by one friend that the older chick would likely peck the younger ones to death. Another friend experienced with poultry told me it shouldn't be an issue and that it might even be beneficial. I put the older one in with the others and observed for a while and she seemed to mostly ignore the others. She had a mini standoff with one and they pecked each other's beak for a second but that was the only mildly aggressive action that I saw.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
