Newbie chicken keeping question: (pic for attention) I have two flocks. One is in a mobile coop and then other in a barn coop. The Mobile coop has a Barred Rock Roo who is fabulous. The barn coop has about 5 younger Easter Egger's that just started laying and two older Wyandotte hens. I'm fencing in 1/2 acre with chicken fencing and want to pull all these chickens (w a second mobile coop for the barn coop ladies) into this area and free range them all day when I'm home. Is this a good or BAD idea? Will this be fine since there is plenty of space? Will they all establish brand new pecking orders? Will they know which coop to go into at night? Also considering a second roo for the second mobile coop. Please advise. Thank you in advance.
