Timing of introduction can also be important. New bird may be ejected in morning from group she is huddling with now. Why some groups accept new members and others do not is beyond me. When introductions from a single group in a brooder differ by days, then bonding between broodmate chicks is likely to have been broken. Sometimes a single chick can integrate into another group better than several.
