Roosters

[tinakevin]

i have 5 appenzeller spitzhaubens. They all grew up together and are 3 and a half months old. I put them in a coop that is 4x8 and a fenced in area with plenty of room. They cannot see the girls. They r on the opposite side of the yard. Do you all think they will get along in the coop and run area. I only want to keep 1 and I'm trying to give away the rest. I really don't want to cull them. Thoughts please

I have a bachelor pad which I keep spare 'roos in. In general they get along very well - as long as they can't access the girls! Occasionally you will get one rooster that wants to be alpha, but it hasn't been that common in my experience.
