Re: [CHICKENS-101] Growth Rates

 

The breeder will breed more to the standard, and the hatchery less so. What are the breeds?  Bantam cochins/pekings?

I notice a difference in the sizes of some of my chicks. The oldest batch were hatched March 17 from a big hatchery. The younger ones are from a serious exhibition breeder.

Is this normal to find large differences in sizes?

I've recently wormed them.

I don't notice any aggression around the feeders.
