will it be ok to move new chicks to outside?

[abbly2]

so I have 8 hens that is 12 weeks old, they haven't been moved to the coop yet because the weather has been crazy. I have 2 roosters and 5 hens in our coop not even a year old (hens just started laying a week ago) is it ok to let the chicks go out there? or how about should I introduce them. my run isn't big enough or coop to put a cage in to introduce.

If your not able to create a separate area for the chicks in the coop. You can't put them out there with them. You run the risk of all the chicks getting injured or killed.

It sounds like your coop and run is to small to hold that many birds.

You are more than doubling your flock. Space is a very big issue especially when trying to add new birds.

Post a picture of your set up, with measurements.
