I've got a very large run, fully fenced in with hardware cloth, sides and top (there are a lot of coyotes in this area, I wanted to make sure they were completely protected). One of my roos has been a punk and has been over mating the hens, so I decided to separate him. I can't build another run as strong as this one, but this one is so big that I got some regular fencing and divided off a big corner. I put him in there with his own food and water. At first he was upset, but has calmed down some since then. I've read that when you have a rooster coop you shouldn't let them see the hens, how much of a problem should this setup create? He can be right there next to the hens, but not get to them.
