I have about 10 hens and one rooster. Various breeds. The Rooster is a Rhode Island Red. All the hens get along with the rooster except for two Buff Orpingtons. They now hide in the chicken house most of the day because they cant stand the rooster. When they do come down, the rooster is relentless in his quest to mount them. I removed the Buff's for about a week and they were very happy. When put back into general population, they reverted right back to hiding. Is this a problem with the breeds or an over anxious rooster.
