How do I introduce 2 month old chicks to the older chickens?

Chicks can be introduced at any age as long as they have heat or are old enough to go with out it. What is needed is space and hiding places (not traps unless there is no way for the larger birds to get in). Multiple feeding stations and waters. They are fast learners of who the bullies are and will stay out of their way. I find the younger they are the easier it is. The older they are the more of a "threat" they are to the grown hens.

Great info, thanks!
