1 week old vs 10 week old

[brybellchicks]

I let my 1 week old chicks out in the run today with my 10 weekers ....... A couple of times the older ones would come to the babies and nudge them a little but nothing more . I sat in there with them just in case lol I have a chair that I keep in the run, my chickens know all my problems. I was wondering at what age is good to let the 1 weekers stay in the coop with the 10 weekers I put the older ones out there at about 3 weeks . We live in Ar so it is very warm. I figure id try at 7 weeks also but will they get along? Should I keep letting the babies in there as long as I watch them today I let them stay about an hour or so they seemed to love it? Any opinions????
