    Rooster count

    If you want them all to run together one day you'll definitely need more hens. I find 8-10 hens a rooster is good. Breed also matters some are just more aggressive than others.

    Rooster count

    Yes, they have an acre fenced in and two coops. Lots of space is key to avoid fighting. Everyone does their own thing during the day and they have two coops to pick from for night time.

    How large are Kalmbach Flock Maker Pellets?

    I actually have both at the moment. Hope this helps. I feel the Nutrena is a little smaller than the Kalmbach.

    My duck is sitting on chicken eggs

    So far everything has been going well with my duck raising her chick. When momma gets in the pool dad watches the baby. It's been 4 days now

    My duck is sitting on chicken eggs

    My duck just hatched a chicken egg. She lost all her eggs. I had hens setting and one egg was about 5 days behind the others guess someone laid one later so they pretty much left it. So I put it under my duck and took her rotten egg. So far that's her babies.

    Keets keep dying.

    Keets need a much higher protein I've always fed my keets 30% game bird. Chick starter would not be sufficient for them.

    The other leghorn hatched her two eggs 😊 they have decided to combine and raise them together I guess. So far they are being good mommas.

    Thank you both. They are so cute. The picture does make it look like a big bowl but it's very shallow. They can easily run in and out of it.

    One Proud Momma ❤️🥚🐣🐣

    So I got 4 leghorns for high egg production. The other plus was they are very unlikely to go broody from everything I've read. Well out of my mixed flock my only broody ones are my leghorns 😂🤦🏻‍♀️ 2 of the 4. Mrs Pea was the 1st to hatch 4 babies so far. She's so proud of herself ❤️

    I keep losing chicks, trying to figure out what’s going on!

    Did the integration period go well with the adults? How's the coop ventilation? Are the older chickens allowing the young ones to eat?

    3mo Pullet crowing solutions?

    They are all very cute. Often times when cockerels first start crowing they sounds ridiculous. I personally love the first crows because they put so much effort into it and sound so funny. Takes about 2 to 3 weeks before they start to sound like your classic rooster crow from my experience.
