When to put outside 24/7

[MyChickalees]

A few years of chicken keeping here, but first time ever introducing new chicks to an established flock, actually just one mature hen from the original flock! Over the last few weeks she has become accustomed to living alone in the coop\run. I have 4 Golden Laced Wyandottes brooding in the garage! They are 5 weeks old now, and mean as hell to each other, they need to get out! Thoughts on introduction?
We live in Florida weather is warm!

Adding 4 to one will really help. She can only peck so many. Adding some pallets up on cement blocks or leaned up against the wall can offer hideouts, but make sure all have more than one exit.

Mine would be in there with her. There may be a little thumping around, but I would expect them all to get along within a week or less. The pullets will hang together as rather a sub flock, until they lay. But she will tolerate them long before that.
