Thanks for all the responses. I read Rooster_Red's page and will use that to help my roo's behavior along. It certainly will make things a lot easier if I can just get one batch of chicks and narrow it down to one rooster from them.
Hopefully I can get the coop built this winter.
Thanks...
Hi. First post, hope this is the right forum.
I want to start a small flock, 10 hens and 1 rooster. Grab the eggs from the hens that don't have much interest in raising youngun's and let the broody ones raise our meat chicks. I have done some research and decided that I want Buff Orpingtons...
