few questions 12 weeks old

[cristina33]

I have my 12 week old silkies that I plan on moving out asap. they smell bad lmao......so here is the thing I have 17 of them and they could not all fit in the same brooder so they are split up into colors. Well I want to put them all in the same coop . Since it will be new to all of them if I just put them all together do you think they will get along??? Also whats your thoughts on them moving outside at 12 weeks I am in mass.

They will probably be fine. I combine different ages often and have not had any problems.

Also, as long as they are in a warm coop, that is dry and draft free, I think they will be fine. I would put 2 heat lamps on the chicks, just incase one blows during the night.
