i only have five for now but I would like to have more but I would like to have different breeds or are they terrtiarol

We have 16 hens and 1 rooster. They all get along fine. They do establish a pecking order. We have
2 Cuckoo Marans
2 RIR,
1 Buff Orpington,
1 White Plymouth Rock,
5 Black Sex Links
4 EE's
1 Old English Wheaten Bantam
1 EE Rooster

I appears that the BSL's are the dominants but they all do fine together in the same coop and run. They free range most of the day but usually in bad weather we keep them in the run. They are just one big happy family.

When you first introduce new into the flock, there may be a little friction for the first few days until the pecking order gets established. But nothing to worry about. At least that has been my experience.

However, more than one Rooster may be a different story depending on the breed. But hens should be no problem.
