It depends on the roosters. Could be fine, could he a bloodbath. When are you planning on getting hens?

I have 2 roosters in their own coop (trying to grow my bachelor flock). Aside from some occasional pecks (to establish dominance I guess), they seem to get along just fine (they can see the hens, by the way).

Have they been raised together, are they young ? If so, it might work, but as @Willow2253 suggests have a 'Plan B' in mind in case things go South.

As long as they can't see the hens I see no problem with it. I have two silkie rooster with hens and they are fine.

Should be fine

I've hear tails of folks having bachelor flocks. Never tried this myself, and I imagine each rooster and breed can have some variations in their behavior. I don't see why you shouldn't try.

My 3 cockerels (for adoption!) do fine with each other in a coop. Do the roosters know each other?

It should work out, but have a separate pen ready if it doesn’t. It can be a bit harder with two (for a smaller bachelor pad, three is best) but I’ve had success with two roo flocks before.

It could work, just be ready to change your plan if they don’t get along. I have 2 boys currently in their own coop, they grew up together and get along fine.
