Temperment of Sumatras and Yokohamas ?

Can you house Yokohama roosters with other roosters?

They are mellower than most breeds, so they'll probably get abused by other roos. I keep mine separate from other breeds, so I can breed true.

Hi
Thank you all for your replys,some really nice pictures as well.
Sounds like I shoudlnt have any problems with these guys then,of course I know theres always the exception.I ordered about 25 birds total and a few geese so these guys will get lots of attention.I always keeps my chicks in the house for the first weeks so I can keep a eye on them and spend more time with them.Once they get week or so I move them out to my big brooder in the main coop.

Just ordered a pair of each! Does/has anyone ever cross bred them? If so how did they come out? I am interrested in crossing them in the future just to see what I get.
