Hello
Newbie here.
Got a few chicks which are 4 weeks old already and now I got a 6 mo old rooster.
Have the chicks on a brooder set up in my garage (still in the 50s in central fl) so I am planning on moving them to the coop in about 2 weeks or so but I got a new (buff orpington as well) rooster today, which I placed already inside the coops to get it acclimated but I was told I cannot move the chicks until they are at least 6 weeks old.
I can keep the rooster outside the coop and inside the run so they can see each other but not be together at the beginning. Is this correct? What's the beat advice you can give me?

TIA for any guidance you can provide.
