Section off coop

[Mistyridgechickens]

Hey all, I have 3 young chickens that will be done with their with their quarantine in a couple weeks, but will still be too small to join their new flock unsupervised, so I’m looking for something I can use to separate them. Their coop is a horse stall, and I can either construct something to section off like 1/3 of it or have something standalone that I can put them in. I just want it to be larger than the dog crate they’re in now. Open to buying or building something. I have hardware cloth and chicken wire already, plus a dog exercise pen we could try to use lol. Thanks!

How 'small' is that, in weeks?

I designed my coop to accommodate a temporary wall for segregation/integration:

Dimensions and pics of your coop would help garner viable suggestions.

They’ll be about 12-13 weeks old when they go out. The coop is about 10x12, I can get pictures when I get home.

Looking forward to seeing them.
Is there also a run attached to the coop?
How many existing birds are there?

Nice coop space to work with. How big is the dog exercise pen? If it's not quite big enough to house them full time you might be able to jerry-rig something together by attaching wire fencing to the pen as an attachment point, to create a bigger space.
