I am an urban farmer who is not allowed a rooster in the city. Well when I raised Vivienne I believed she was a he...as he grew larger than his hatchling companions I began to worry and then one day he crowed. So what do people do when they have this problem?
My husband has been bringing him...
In regards to how long before your get any eggs...well if she is much older, say five, her production could be greatly diminished....I would be sure to have a light on a timer in the coop and adjust with when the coop is open to natural daylight so you have a totoal of 14 hours. If you think...
What a colorful breed...thanks for bringing it to my attention. It's small...not a bantam is it! What do hens usually weigh? I'll have to look into this breed.
