    Regulating rooster populations

    Set up a bachelor pen if you really want to keep them. They will most likely get along if there are no hens about to compete over. This has worked for me in the past without any problems at all. It sounds like you have all your birds together, so you wont be introducing new roos, just moving...

    Are you thinking of taking the chicks away from the hen after she has hatched out the eggs she is sitting on? A hen does not start to lay eggs right away again, it takes a while. Then when she starts laying she may not go broody right away. Try letting her keep them and raise them! There is...
