I have a bit of a conundrum …
I was given 3 chicks from a friend in march when they were 3 weeks old. Well 2 have turned out to be roos. I already have a roo and I have someone who will take the 2 new boys. However they don’t want the female and i really do want her but she is very attached to the boys. I have a group of 5 week old chicks that are in the look dont touch area of the run. Do you think i can put her in there with that group so she can bond with them and not be lonely ? She is very flighty and always stays close to her boys so I’m trying to make the adjustment as smooth as I can. She is 9 weeks old. Is that too old now to go back to being with the 5 weekers?
Thanks in advance for any advice or suggestions.
