I have two buff orpington that are a year old and two polish girls that are 10 weeks. At six weeks, I put the polish girls in a coop beside the older hens where they can see each other and started letting them into the older girls' run through the day. One of the orpington would peck if a baby got in her way, but she didn't chase after them. I did this for three weeks. Two nights ago, I added the polish into the main coop overnight. It seemed to go ok. Today I looked closely and the polish have been pecked between the eyes, drawing blood. They were in the main coop for only two nights. I have separated them again.
