We got the same chickens three weeks ago. It's only been the last couple of days we've been able to leave them in the run all together. Hope you are successful in mixing yours. Would recommend shutting Them in the coop together at night, preferably once the original ones have settled down.

Easier said than done! At the moment snowflake the top hen is in the cat basket in the run. Everytime the newbies went to bed she would peck and chase them out, thus disturbing bedtime for flies and daffers. Now she is separated, Lucy is now settled with floss and Daphne and Amelia is half in half out. Gonna give it an hour and put snowflake in when she is half asleep and hope for the best!

The plan is to get up when I wake up, nirmalybabout half 6 and let them out to free range, them tomorrow night let them go to bed themselves.

Hate to mess with the process but we kinda need to go to bed too and I'm not leaving the coop door open all night!
