I am still learning and am curious about the chicken being able to hold on to the roosters sperm for a week or more. I have a silkie bantam that just started brooding and we got rid of our rooster a week and a half ago. He was mating with all the hens. Any chance she could be laying fertile...
I thought our little 6 month old Silky was dead tonight. She didn't move when I tried to pet her and move her around. Finally when I picked her up she put her head up and came alive. She was laying on her egg and we brought her in to warm her up by the heater. She seems fine now, but not sure...
I would like to know about this no crow collar too? We have a rooster that I would like to keep, but live in a residential area and don't want to have unhappy neighbors
