I successfully added two silkies to my established flock. They have a large pasture to roam during the day and a spacious coop at night so space and being able to escape were not an issue. I kept them in a separate part of my coop for a week so they could see and be seen but not touch the rest of the flock. Then I moved them to the main coop at night; I just set them on the roosts next to the other hens. In the morning they just went out with the rest of the flock when the door was opened. My other chickens are buff orpingtons, RIR, and EE.
