my Rhode island reds are being very aggressive

Alright

great to have you joining the flock

As you can see I haven't any idea about mixed flocks

Even introducing little and big birds is tricky at best and not
as easy as this photo makes it look

To introduce a new bird first fence them off so they can see
each other before letting them make physical contact this
helps to ease tension in the flock.... Now I have RIR's and
EE's together is not easy as RIR are dominate and EE's
are an easy going chicken now they can get along in one
yard but need to be able to roost in separate places of at
least 3 or more feet distance and chicken wire would be nice
