Pecking order.

I humble disagree with
Roo will keep the pecking order much more civil.

Later on, a rooster might work. But the OP is tight for space, and it sounds like just flock mates. I would expect the juvenile roosters to be the problem, and that problem intensified in a small space. I would expect them to run the pullets ragged.

I have never really found a rooster much good until he gets to be a year of age, then I rather like having one in the flock. But two, not unless I was over 25 birds. Never for 4.

We have recently added to the chickens space and the problem seems to be less of an issue.
Thanks for all of the advice. :D
