You're talking about integrating chicks. I advocate introducing new chicks as early as possible using a safe enclosure within the main run. Have you decided how you will brood them after they hatch? I recommend to heating pad system. It's safe and replicates a broody hen.

I wrote an article on early integration and brooding chicks outdoors. It's listed below my comment. Copy and paste the link into your browser to read it.
