Hen Decides to Roost in Tree Instead of Coop

We live in NWest Florida, 2 days ago we got a rooster, 2 RIRs, and 3 bantams from a military couple who were being transferred. The first night was fine, they slept in the coop. Today we let them out for several hours. When dusk came we tried to get them all into the coop, 2 hens refused, even though the rooster was calling and calling them. It is late now and they are both still up the tree. When we tried to get them down they went even higher. So I guess we just leave them there? The coop is closed so they do not have access to the grain, I did put water outside the coop for them. I hope they are alive tomorrow. Any sugguestions? Sooners75
