I'm getting 3 hens for my RIR free range roo, he free range alone, I'm getting 2 BO & 1 Barred rock hens, so i do introduce them to my roo? Hes a year old, & they are 10 months old hope that helps!! Thanks!!:)
 
Pen them near roost area for one day. Then release under supervision. This will simply minimize the chasing if there is any at all. You want boning by dark so hens roost with him so I would do on a morning you can be out with birds and around in the evening. Fun to watch.
