    Too Many Roosters.

    They didn't come in the order. I ordered them from Cackle Hatchery but they had a short hatch.

    Too Many Roosters.

    Thank you for the information. I wasn't sure how long jungle fowl lived. I found out yesterday from my mother-in-law that he may have been even older than 7 or 8. He was the last jungle fowl on the farm and the other youngest ones were from 2014 as chicks. Their first jungle fowl came from a zoo...

    Too Many Roosters.

    Sadly we are down to only one rooster, Elvis. Our Jungle Fowl rooster, Hei Hei was 7 to 8 years old. He was attacked by a predator or another chicken today after my husband let the chickens out. My husband did not see it as he had already gone to work. This makes me sad as he was my favorite...

    Too Many Roosters.

    I want one that is good with chicks, able to handled without ripping my arm up, and a male to fertilize eggs for hatching. We already have a flock protector. And the way we have it now is 2 roosters to 13 or 14 laying Hens. My husband is building a 2nd coop for my new chickens along with a...

    Too Many Roosters.

    My husband and I decided to get rid of both cockerels this mornjng. I ordered chicks from Cackle Hatchery a few weeks ago. Hopefully a good rooster will come out of there. Any tips on how to socialize roosters so they will be really friendly. We have never had a problem with our roosters being...

    We have 23 chickens total in the big run, now. 14 laying Hens and 5 younger ones. 4 roosters are left. left. Now we had 28 chickens originally out in the big coop and we added 3 more. I am sorry that the math is confusing. We have gotten rid of 8 adult chickens and added 3 seven week olds...

    Too Many Roosters.

    How old is too old for a rooster to be breeding? Elvis the Aracauna is really laid back at 4 to 6 years old. However he has put the 8 year old Jungle Fowl in his place.

    Too Many Roosters.

    We have a grow out pen with a roof on it in the run/ free range area so they are able to see each other. But not get to each other. That is what we do, but they are not in the coop at night together.

    Too Many Roosters.

    We had 28 adult chickens. We had 10 roosters. We ate 1, 5 got sold so we have 4 left. Two of the roosters are older and we will definitely keep. 1 is the Jungle Fowl and the other one is the white Aracauna. Now we have the two EE sons left. The one that we thought was really promising has...
