Adopting from the humane society!

Are any of your current birds male? How will you be housing them? Very important info as if resources not correct, you taking them not good.

They will be housed with my older ladies!

This part OK. Keep the game rooster away from the existing rooster. Keep them at least a foot apart if penned close together.

I would work on taming the games so they are easier to handle. They will tame / train much easier than anything you currently have.

Integration Basics:
It's all about territory and resources(space/food/water).
Existing birds will almost always attack new ones to defend their resources.
Understanding chicken behaviors is essential to integrating new birds into your flock.

Confine new birds within sight but physically segregated from older/existing birds for several weeks, so they can see and get used to each other but not physically interact.

In adjacent runs, spread scratch grains along the dividing mesh, best if mesh is just big enough for birds to stick their head thru, so they get used to eating together.

The more space, the better. Birds will peck to establish dominance, the pecked bird needs space to get away. As long as there's no copious blood drawn and/or new bird is not trapped/pinned down and beaten unmercilessly, let them work it out. Every time you interfere or remove new birds, they'll have to start the pecking order thing all over again.

Multiple feed/water stations. Dominance issues are most often carried out over sustenance, more stations lessens the frequency of that issue.

Places for the new birds to hide 'out of line of sight'(but not a dead end trap) and/or up and away from any bully birds. Roosts, pallets or boards leaned up against walls or up on concrete blocks, old chairs tables, branches, logs, stumps out in the run can really help. Lots of diversion and places to 'hide' instead of bare wide open run.

This used to be a better search, new format has reduced it's efficacy, but still:

Looks like a pair of Gamefowl. The cock is missing part of his top beak.

Resident bird (rooster) demonstration of dominance will more likely than not result in game rooster turning around and killing the resident. This not looking good making for yet another black eye for games.

Right...but I was just offering some general info.

Bad medicine.

Most general info is totally wrong for gamefowl. Along with 99% of rooster handling advice given out so freely around here.

Even the female?
Centrarchid addressed the cockbird.
My main target in posting was the quarantine info.
