I have a great rooster - not aggressive with people, great protector of his hens, and a BIG bird. Wherein lies the problem. His naturally amorous nature is leaving some of the hens really banged up; bare patches.
I'm considering going roosterless. Do any of you run flocks of a dozen or more birds, sans le coq? Any advice or warnings?
