I built a separate run off of the side of the existing run. They are connected but separate the adults from the pullets. Arguably it’s 8 times the size of the container I was using as a brooder.They need a shelter to sleep in. If this is a temporary place you don't have to make a huge coop for them. I made a small temporary coop for my hens when I was introducing them to the flock. Just some 2x4's some plywood, an open bottom roost for them with hardware cloth to keep the predators from coming in the bottom. Just somewhere safe for them to sleep and roost.
