^^ that's funny because I got a bakers dozen this year and the runt was the meanest, fiestiest one. It would stand on the water bottle and taunt the other ones, and if we put any grapes or anything in it would peck at any chicken that got one until they have it up. It's the same size as the there now, and nice. Go figure.
I guess it can be a personality thing rather than size too.
The most we ever had at one time was 8. When one would start the "bock, bock, bock" they would all start doing it and it was quite a riot, noise wise I mean, especially in the barn off the metal walls. They used to like to get on the top edge of my front end loader all lined up, funny sight to see.
