    Is it ok to leave the rooster in with the hen that is laying eggs? Will the babies be ok with the rooster?

    Trying to make some chicks

    I have 4 barred rock laying hens about 1.5 years old, and a barred rock rooster about 6 months old. Currently they are in different coops (rooster is by himself). My question is how can I get the rooster to mate a hen and make some chicks?

    help identifying breed

    the hen that is in with the 6 roosters, hatched around Christmas. I think I will put the barred rock rooster (6 mo old) in with the laying barred rock hens (1 year old).

    And why is the hen not laying yet? Could it be due to her being in with 6 Roosters?

    The Barred Rock hens are a year old and the Rooster is 28 weeks old. he's big, maybe bigger than the hens.
