That's a great question. Our friend who keeps egg laying chickens, is giving us 2 female chicks and one of the roosters as soon as they are old enough. He has several colors (red, black, spotted, and black w rust) and I did not think to ask the breed because I was busy avoiding the very large...
We have 1/2 acre and would like to raise 2 chickens and a was told I need a rooster for eggs. Is it legal? I need to know before we invest the time, etc.
