These chicks consist of Easter Eggers, Buff Orpingtons, Red Rock Cross, Silkies and White Leghorns. These chicks were born at the same time as the broilers and will be kept for laying and my own enjoyment. If I put the two together the size difference would be VERY noticeable. The broilers are at least double in size. They are different from my chickens I got last year. They are much more curious and friendly. I think some of it has to do with the breed and some of it has to do with the time spent handling them. Either way...we like them. If you listen closely...Ashley professes her love to the one she is holding. And if you look in the little window (at the back of the room) you will be able to see Heidi looking in. I am sure, if given the choice, she would have a chicken dinner every night.
