Nothing to worry about. The chicks stay under mother hen most of time on the first days. And if they start to walk around to eat and drink, they go back to mama as soon as the chicks feel they are getting cold.

Thank you!! This helps ease my mind so much..I kept waffling about bringing them all into the garage, but I'd rather they stay out with all the birds for a smoother and simpler integration
