15 Male Frying Pan Specials + one unknown unsexed chick

[Enderchicken222]

Hello chicken enthusiasts! It's been a long time since I've raised chickens and we've just ordered some more to chase of quarentine boredom. I'd like advice on frying pan specials temperament, how big a coop I should out together, and whether or not we need a proper incubator (we live in Hawaii)

You bought eggs? (nvm you said incubator, you meant brooder since the title says male) You are raising them to eat?
I saw some at the store and thought they were the cutest and prettiest birds there but I had already bought 4 orpingtons prior to my visit.

Planning to eat them once they get big enough and/or cause too much trouble. As for the mystery chick, that depends on what it ends up being.

This will be fun!
It would be a real suprise if you got any pullets, and these cockerels should be beautiful!
You do need a reasonable coop, and first brooder space, so they have a good temperature gradient, either with a brooder plate (easiest!) or a small heat lamp.
Minimum coop size would be about 60 sq. ft., depending on your plans for all of them. Butchering all, or keeping some favorites?

Planning to butcher them all, thanks for the brooder advice!
