Going into coop

[bigmarj]

I have 2 sets of Silkie bantans. One is 8 1/2 weeks and the other 5 1/2 weeks.Can i put them both in a new coop together? The 8 1/2 week old ones are a little bigger. When do they stop growing. so the other ones can catch up?

The sooner the better.

The younger the birds are when you integrate the better the chance they will get along quicker.
