I have read that it is okay to keep multiple roosters together if you keep no hens in the coop.
Has anyone ever done this? Can you keep the roosters together on the same lot as a coop of hens and only bring them together to breed?
Thanks in advance.
 
Have you read this article https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/rooster-flocks.72998/ ? There are plenty of people who keep roos together in the thread linked in the article. I used to have a roo flock, but they were killed unexpectedly in a predator attack. I haven’t got any more only because I have suspected Marek’s in my flock and have decided not to get more chickens until I’m sure new ones won’t get infected.
You can bring them together with hens to breed, but don’t separate them away from each other for long in order to make transition back to the roo flock easier.
