Hi All,
I'm new here and was wondering whether Golden Comets and Buff Orpingtons should be fine to raise together. I'm planning on getting 2 of each and while it looks like they're both pretty friendly breeds, there is eventually a pretty decent size difference. Will that be a problem?
The other issue is that I know the Orpingtons are pretty decent sized birds and I wanted to check whether the coop would be big enough for all 4. We're doing a pre-fab to start out with the following dimensions: 83L x 35W x 52H inches (the enclosed coop+nestbox area is only 26x36 inches of floor). The birds will be let out every day to a separate run in the backyard so they won't only be in that area. Thanks for the advice!
