*Yes, you're going to breed them, plan for more!
*Yes a run is like that.
*If you're going to breed some cochin batams later on then you need to plan for a place for them, doesn't have to be attached to the one you want.
-You'll want to separate the Roos so you can keep track of who the parents are (unless you don't care, then just put them in with the rest.)
-And you'll also want a place to keep brooding hens (unless you're hatching in an incubator.)
(When you want brooding hens; only put one roo in the Brooder's coop and (depending on how many you want brooding) several hens.)
-Get or make a coop with low boxes for the hens, maybe a low roost, and fence enough to separate the Brooders, Roos, and Hens (however, you'll want the runs attached to each-other so they can still see each-other.
) And make the bottom of the Brooder's coop & run chick-proof (aka if you have wide (or tall) holes in your fence like I do you'll have to put chicken-wire or such around the bottom.)
***MAKE COOP PREDATOR PROOF!!!!
