Okay laugh but that is what I am calling them. They are layers but produce such small eggs right now because they are young, so they are my teenage chickens. Anyway I got three of them and they just won't mingle with the older ladies. They stay in the same coop and there is no fighting but all day long they stay in their clicks. I have raised chickens for over 20 years and have never seen anything like this.

It is normal. We have raised chickens for quite a while and when I was growing up we had a chicken farm too.
After they get older they will blend in with the rest. Really can't tell which of ours is which anymore.
We could, I suppose if we spent more time with them or named them or something.

I had several chicks hatch about 3 months ago. They are all ahnging out with their brothers and sisters right now. They all come together to eat but then go their merry ways during the day. There are a few still sticking with their moms though.
