What any other breed needs. Food, higher on the corn than usual. Shelter and water.

If your chickens are free range then provide a coop with roosting space and a draft free area to settle for the night. A red or blue 150 watt light will provide enough warmth for nights when the temp drops below zero. Although they will eat snow it is best to provide ice free water twice per day and try to increase the corn content of their feed as it is higher in energy and provides internal warmth.

Yes, but you need to introduce them at night to reduce fighting. If you mix them during daylight hours you will have injured to dead chickens to tend to. At least an hour after sun down is when you want to mix them. However there will still be some hen pecking for a few weeks but if they have a lot of room to run around in then you shouldn't have any injuries.
