My 6 BB Turkeys and 6 Cuckoo Marans came in today's mail. For warmth I received 13 additional chicks. Everyone seems in good health- eating and drinking. I left 5 of the unknown chicks w/ the turkeys as recommended by the hatchery. I guess turkeys aren't the brightest in the bunch so they need help being shown where the food and water is. They said to remove the chicks after 2 days to prevent BlackLeg.
Can anyone tell me what the unkown chicks are?
