Thank you good advice☺

I have 2 bantam Cochin hens (babies) that I hatched. One just turned 21 weeks the other is 19 weeks. The rooster keeps mating with them but they haven't even started laying yet. I think they are too young for him to mate with. Is it Okay? Boy do they scream.

My Easter eggs has not layed an egg in a year. She is 1 1/2 yrs old. Had her from a chick. She reached laying age and layed about a month and stopped. It has been close to a year since she has layed an egg. Other hens in flock do fine.

Thank you to everyone. All good advice.

Do I feed my newly hatched babies the start and grow medicated just like I would the babies I bought in the past? And if so how do I keep their mom from eating it and them from eating moms All Flock food?
