Most of them are as big if not bigger than my smallest adult hen, Clucky, who is regrettably mia at the moment.I'd say yes. Of course keep an eye on them. When I brought my babies to my one hen I had left (9yrs old) she quickly established domince. She eats first or they get a peck in the back. It wasn't long before they were snuggled with her at night and she purred to them. She still eats first but that's the pecking order. If you feel your hens/roos are being excessively aggressive and pecking in the head or pinning to the Ground then I'd wait a couple more weeks so they won't be killed. You keep an eye on the behavior and follow your instincts. You will know excessive aggressive behavior if you see it. Hope this helps. Best wishes.
