    Can chickens live alone at night?

    I have 2 cochin chickens (5 weeks) and I was wondering if it’s ok if they can live in separate pens for the night in the barn and in one large pen in the day (outside)? Their night pens are a good size for 1 chicken but 2 might be pushing it a bit. (12” by 30”)

    LF Cochins

    Large fowl Cochins are my favorite breed, along with brahmas, but I can't seem to ever find anyone that breeds them. Why is this? I see bantam Cochins for sale everywhere, however, the standard breed seems extremely hard to find for some reason. Thanks in advance.
