What problems may happen if I get 4 straight run chickens?

Because they're not worth anything. They don't have any meat on them, and unless you want them for breeding your bantam hen, they just hang around eat. I suppose they could be a flock protector and all that, but if you get too many of them, some will have to go, and you'll have a hard time finding a home for them.

Can something happen if there is a problem with too many roos? To lower the chance, I could get something like 6, but still, no matter what, I could end up with a 4:4 hen/rooster ratio. Just what happens? Do they kill each other?

I got 6 straight runs once, and all 6 turned out to be roosters.

Was that "why" to my post? If so, bobbi-j nailed it. No one wants them, they're pretty much worthless. Occasionally one might find a home, but I see the same birds posted for free on craigslist for months.
