Can Cornish X roosters live together peaceful, if raised together? It looks like two of ours may be male and two females.
Thanks

It's possible that two roosters raised together will get along, but without considerably more females than males, the hens will be overmated.

Also, toys!
Some chickens like to chase and attack cat toys. Any sort of toy that you can stuff full of treats will do the trick, too. A hunk of lettuce or such hung up high where they can jump at it would also get their attention. Food on a string may be worth a try, like an edible version of those cat toys that you wiggle for the cat.

great ideas!
