Hey everyone! Hope everyone is doing well.
So this year we hatched some chicks, four to be exact. We have two hens and two roosters from the hatch. I love all of them dearly!
We have seven adult hens that are mixed ages. I have run into a little dilemma though. I am afraid if I keep both of the roosters that they will start fighting, and also over mate the hens. I have an opportunity to get rid of one but I’m not sure which one. One is a Wyandotte and the other is an Ameracauna. I have heard that sometimes Ameracauna’s can be a little aggressive. We also live a little bit out of town and have neighbors. I’m just afraid two roosters will be too much for nine hens. I think there may be a chance I could make this work if they had lots of space? What do you think?
Thank you!! ❤
