You are dealing with living animals, no one can tell you for sure how it will work out. We all have different conditions and circumstances, the more room you have the better your chances. But even if yours totally free range with no space limits it still might not work out. In my experience and from what I read on this forum I don't believe breed has anything to do with it.
Time will tell how it works out for you. In the meantime I strongly suggest you prepare your plans. What will you do if it doesn't work out? What will you do if the boys start to kill each other? What will you do if they are so brutal to the girls you can't stand to watch, let alone the girls start getting hurt?
You probably have another two weeks to prepare. Things could start happening that soon. You may not need anything for a month and a half or even longer. It is even possible you will never need it but I would not count on that. When the need occurs you often need it right then, it needs to be ready.
I raise my pullets and cockerels together with the flock which includes a few adult hens and a mature rooster. I have over 50 square feet per chicken outside even when I'm crowded. I have three different coops/shelters they can sleep in if I need to split them. Half the time I have more cockerels than pullets. I typically butcher my cockerels around 5 to 6 months of age so I don't let them go older than that. About once every three or four years I have to separate the cockerels from the rest, it gets that rough. My circumstances and goals are quite a bit different from yours, I can only go by my experience.
I wish you luck. You need to go by what you see, not what somebody over the internet like me tells you will happen. But I strongly urge you to get ready just in case. I think you will be glad you did.
