Welcome I always kept the new ones in their coop/run for a couple of weeks so when I let them out they know where "home" is. Even so the first couple of times you might have to go wrangle a few of them up and bring them in. But it doesn't take them long! Good Luck
Hens go broody when you don’t want them to… and won’t go broody when you do.
