Chins are pretty doscile creatures...I wouldn't worry at all about them attacking your birds. My family used to have a chinchilla named Meeko, and he was the sweetest little thing. He was never out of his cage when the birds were, but he was so easygoing and well behaved, that I am fairly certain nothing dangerous would have happened.
Keep in mind that chins are fast, and can climb and jump. This might make capturing a chin that doesn't want to go back to its cage difficult, especially if it is climbing on other cages. Also, chins aren't supposed to have too much rich, fresh foods (too much can lead to digestive upset). It might be potentially harmful if they ate fruits or veggies that the birds drop from their cages. It might be best to keep them away from the birds, also because their hearing is much better than ours...imagine what a screaming bird would sound like to them!
