New chickens help

[Henriettamom919]

Where are they all located? Is there room for the chicks to run away and hide? Or just run far enough for hen to leave them alone? If not, then you should be worried.

I agree, not enough information to really advise any further. I'm still not clear on how many hens, total, she has or how old the one hen is

There is a place where they can run. It is a big coop. They run but she chases them.

i don’t know how old the one hen is and I don’t know how many hens there are in the chicks because they are so young but I have one chicken that is fully grown and it’s a hen.

Okay, that's what I was trying to figure out- how many grown birds I'm thinking it's still too early to leave her alone with them unless they have an area they can escape to that she can't enter. Some people build a grow out area in their coop/run that is separated with a small door only the chicks can enter through.

I have no clue what breed if y’all could help with that too.

I have 2 coops one for the chicks and one for the hen. But at night she freaks out.

To help her adjust do some supervised, short visits and offer a small treat to distract everyone; oats, sunflower seed, mealworms and diced fruit are all good choices. Talk sweetly to your hen while she's near the chicks and give her time to acclimate to their presence.
