Make them a spot where they can hide and they can go in now. A piece of plywood raised up on bricks works well for that. You can put feed under it for them if you fix it so the hens can't get under too. You'll need to be sure they are sleeping in a warm, dry spot if they aren't roosting yet.

Thanks Kim.They want to roost and they want out of the pen I have for them in the chicken house.I put them in a chicken tractor sort of pen during the day so they can get grass.Another question ,can I raise banty's with the big chickens or will they need a pen of their own?

Together is fine. I have some tiny, tiny banties and some HUGE chickens running together with turkeys, geese, ducks and guineas.
