HI,
We are raising our very first flock. We got 4 chicks on May 5th and I am ok if one of them is a Roo but not sure what to do if we end up with 2 Roos with only 2 hens? Right now they all get along. The littlest one isn't fully feathered so they only go out in the run for play time when it is warm outside and that seems to help them have some more space. Please let me know your opinions so I can make arrangements for one of the 2 Roo's if I need to. I am a softy and would want to make sure he isn't someones dinner. Also, they are English Orpington but our little Louie the black one seems to be smaller and her tail feathers don't look like the others and she isn't nearly as fluffy.

This is Matilda (pretty sure she is our Roo and we need to seriously rethink the name
