Scramble Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 As my eglu is arriving on August 2th (yipee!!! ) I have been making a few enquireies about getting my chicken. I want two pekin bantams one red/gold partridge and one lemon cuckoo. I have found a place that sells lemon cuckoo and a place that sells the partridge colour. But they are different places and I would only but one chicken from each breeder, so really would the chickens I bought get on even if they hadn't been brought up together? They would be about 13 weeks old, both female. I don't want any bullying going on... very confused... sorry for you having to read my worthless banter, I just want my chickens to have good lives and that the ones I buy don't hate each other at first sight...or am I just being too sensitive?

Egluntyne Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 They are still young so you might be OK. I'd buy them on the same day and put them in their home at the same time so that neither has the home advantage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
