A new rooster in a existing flock will be integrating with the flock. Takes about a month or 2 for the hens to respond to him. By the 3rd month you should see fertility in the eggs.

I've posted an update in another thread, he actually already integrated and the eggs are fertilized, so in the end, it took less than a week! :)
