I am desperate, I have 6 new Hampshire red girls 1 month old in my bathroom. I desperately need to get them in the coop. I have a 1 yr old rooster and 3 (4 yr old girls - 2 buffs and 1 new Hampshire) Can I put those babies in the coop or will the others kill them? Help me please...
 
Usually it is best to introduce new chicks when they are older than that, and closer in size to the adult birds. Your chicks are not even fully feathered out yet. Could you possibly partition your coop, and a put them out there but in a separate space?

And welcome to BYC :)
