Tomorrow I am picking up 12 Hens and a Rooster (2 Years Old) from a lady on Craigslist..

I currently have 8 Cornish X and 6 RIR outside in the pen mostly 8 weeks old but a couple are 6 weeks..

How do I introduce them?

Also tomorrow I should be accepting my shipment from Meyer Hatchery of 15 layers

But they are going in the Brooder with my Duckling, 2 Bourbon Red Turkey Poults and 2 Lavendaer Orphington which are all about 3-4 days old
 
Make sure the chickens are the same size! When one is small and one is large, the larger one might pick one the smaller one. And also since chicks, turkey, and ducks all look pretty much the same a babies, I wouldn't worry about them until they get older (watch the ducks because they do look different from chicks and turkey.).
In about six days, I am going to also get some chicks from the Meyer Hatchery YAY! chickens!!
