Can it be done?

I have 2 little english game bantams in a large coop with free run of the garden, My friend would like to buy me some buff opringtons that she has found- they are mature and past their best laying. Obviously there is a large size difference so not sure If I can keep them together or not.
Thanks

well i have a bantam wyandotte living with Amberlink and Buff Sussex - they are enormous compared to her and she seems happy enough. In fact when I bought her at about 10 weeks she was with sussex and orp chicks.

From what I'm learning about this whole chicken thing it's not the size that matters!!! :shock: :shock: :shock:
