The roosters won't be the issues it's the hens. After the chicks have full feathers to withstand the weather, put them in a holding pen inside the coop. This will allow the hens to acclimate to the new birds. After two or three days let the new chicks while you are watching. "Should be ok" sometimes it takes a week. Hens can be mean.
