New Chickens getting Big and Beautiful

I can't train dogs let alone chickens.  However I am happy to see that one of my favorite 'cauna' girls has started roosting at night with the 'old girls' in the Barn with the girl Alpacas.  (Sort of a girls night in.)  I hope the rest will follow suit for their own safety but this happened by chance.  I was on the riding mower and since it has headlights (and 4-wheel steer which is awesome), the Newbies pretty much had to fend for themselves.  I have been letting them out all day for the last week or so to socialize them with each other.  The 11 'oldest' newbies had all gone back in the coop, and the newest newbies (minus 1) had all returned to on top of the 2 cages they have been spending the night in.  I was relieved to find the missing (minus 1) in the barn with the older ones...  Some are starting to 'nest' and I can't wait to see what color eggs, how many, and how soon they will start laying!!!  Their colors and 'toes' are too funny.  It may seem ridiculous to some but I find chickens very entertaining creatures and they are awesome at pest control (ticks, mosquitos, etc).
