I have 8 month old Buff Orpingtons and Brahma chickens but I might get some baby chicks from Cackle Hatchery in the spring. Would it be okay to mix 5 week old chicks with older hens(like 8-10 month old chickens).....but only in the run??? We'll probably build the new chicks their own coop in the barn away from the other coop.....because the other coop isn't big enough for more chickens. But they would probably go out in the run together. So would it be okay to let them out in the run together??? How would I start letting them out their???
