Can 3 cockerels live peacefully together?

I say let the boys duke it out and settle it themselves, monitor them of course if it gets out of hand.... but the cream will rise to the top and the other roosters will soon bow down and peace shall resume there after!

OK thanks! I hope so, cuz my family and I r so in love with all 3 and would like to keep them if possible. Of course if we have to let 1 or 2 go we r prepared to do that... If we can find a home... Not many ppl want roosters
 
Like someone else said, it really depends on the birds. I have about 15 roos/cockerels living peacefully together right now. Of course, not all will be staying but they all get along. I always release my breeding pens to one big flock from June till December. They just need to establish their pecking order.

Guess I'll just have to wait it out and see
 
I have 3 mille fleur bantam cockerels that r hatch mates and 12 isa brown girls who r 6 wks. The boys seemed to get along really well together, even squawking sadly when one was removed from the run. I know I should only have 1 rooster per 10-12 hens, but I'm having trouble finding a home for 2 of them. Yesterday I saw having there first face off several times. So my question is, if I cannot find a home for 2 of them, can they live successfully together without ripping each other apart if they r all brothers?
They can live peacefully if theres no hens. You would have to set the boys club and girls club. ^.~
 
I have three cockerels all at 11 weeks old now with 7 hens.
This morning fighting ensued between #1 and #2. I mean spur (I know they don’t have them yet)in air feather flying fighting. I had to break it up because I couldn’t monitor it.
Put one in chicken jail and went on my way.
I released them about 2 hours ago and they’ve been fighting but not as vicious.
One thing for certain though the #2 is now the #1
Moral of the story in my opinion is they’re chickens with chicken problems, I’m not a chicken so I’ll mind my business.
If one comes after me he’ll be on my dinner table that night.
