I put mine in a cage in the run for a while. Then I let them out out night in the coop together. They now are in with each other some times during the day, but they haven't integrated per se. The big girls will chase the little ones if they think they have food... or are in their way. But they stay on separate sides of the run....when they are in it together. I don't know if that is normal or if they will ever integrate. The two I had first are about 7 months old. The five I added are about 3 months old. They have been together about a month. The big girls spend most of the day in the yard because I have been leaving the roof slightly ajar so that the they can get out and forage. They have had the run of the yard for the past three months. But the little ones haven't figured it out yet ( and I am not letting them know until they figure it out on their own)
