help....can i add.....

We did and it worked out fine. We watched them very closely for the first few days and they got along great. One of our 2 week old chicks became very motherly, letting the two little chicks snuggle under her wings. One is completely hidden and the other's tail is sticking out! It was really, really cute.
 
I would say yes. we added some 2 day olds to our brooder that was housing 2 week olds last year. Once everyone got over the ' OMG something has changed' mentality, they all faired out just fine. I actually remember being surprised that the younger chicks were more pushy than the older girls. good luck!
 
i did it twice now and they all are sleeping together well. I have my 13 day olds in with the 6 day olds in with the 2 day olds and all are very happy together. :)
 
I will be doing this also, It is great to hear what people have experienced.
