Vaxed and no -vaxed??? And new to flock?

[Hnowlin12]

Question(s)…

we have 2 8wk old seramas that were vaccinated for Merricks when they were just born from the farm we purchased them from. We are now getting 2 more seramas to add to our flock who are not vaccinated and a few weeks older. (Maybe 3-6?) Anything we should be worried for/look out for? There’s so many contradicting things about mixing vaccinated and unvaccinated chickens.

also what’s the best way to introduce new birds to the flock? We have one pullet and one cockerel and are adding two more pullets so the cockerel can give the poor single pullet a break

thank you all in advance! Enjoy this pic of our babies

I've read that some will keep both. Thought being that the unvaxed will alert them to the problem. Hope that helped a little.
