Hello!
First, I LOVE this site! I've picked up so many good tips on raising chickens!
I am expecting my delivery of (25) chicks on April 23rd. In the meantime, there is a local poultry auction/swapmeet on April 21st.
#1 - what should I expect at the swapmeet? I've never been to one and have no idea what's going on.
#2 - if I get some chicks from the swapmeet, can I keep them in the same brooder with the chicks I'm expecting on the 23rd? Or is there a certain "age limit" where I might need to have 2 brooders?
Thanks for your help!
