    6 month old flock Rooster's or Hen's?

    I understand, choosing which one to keep is done. I will be rehoming them today or tomorrow. Fortunately for me Bubba has kept all the other rooster's in line and none are challenging him. None of the female's show any balding or mark's. This situation has just begun and it won't continue...

    Can My roosters mate each other?

    I just had company and they had chicken wisdom. I was having difficulty choosing which one to keep. The choosing factor is the obvious choice of the lead rooster now, because if I choose one of the other rooster's I was told it would turn into exactly what I am seeing already. So, that helps...

    6 month old flock Rooster's or Hen's?

    Do I get to include the day's it took to incubate . If not, official as of today, six months.

    6 month old flock Rooster's or Hen's?

    Since this behavior has just started. Day's. I have to say that is why I am asking the questions. If I rehome all my rooster's then that defeats the purpose of being sustainable so your comment does not make sense, nor your extreme concern over a situation I have been managing by removing Bubba...

    6 month old flock Rooster's or Hen's?

    Then wouldn't I have to worry about the boy's being raped constantly? I was thinking about removing Bubba but it sounds that once Bubba is removed then the rooster's will start fighting whereas they are relatively nice to each other now and nice to the girls. I have more pullets growing...

    6 month old flock Rooster's or Hen's?

    I am excited for eggs. Just worrying about the girls getting enough to eat. I would like to lock Bubba away from everyone else.

    6 month old flock Rooster's or Hen's?

    I am assured that if they all mature they may do better. I read stories about people removing the rooster and the other birds start to turn on each other. My flock usually like it when I stand in the grazing area with them. My girls stay close to my legs because Bubba is afraid of me. Bubba gets...

    6 month old flock Rooster's or Hen's?

    That's what I think also. Even though the smaller female is very docile and skittish the males pretty much ignore her. She's Penny. Wolfy named after Wolverine because of her sideburns is just beautiful 😍. But she's afraid and stays safety up high. The other rooster's stay by her side. Hu has...

    Can My roosters mate each other?

    It was like watching a crime happening. I felt like I should be comforting my rooster Bo. Instead I locked Bubba up in the nesting box as he yelled at everyone to stay in the hen house and none dared to go into the grazing area.

    6 month old flock Rooster's or Hen's?

    I have had one Rooster that was first born and food focused from day one. I had no idea how many rooster's or Hen's out of the six that hatched. As they have grown I have researched saddle feather's, extra claw that doesn't apply because female and male can have those. The waddle doesn't...

    Can My roosters mate each other?

    Dogfood. I have one very large and beautiful rooster that asserts himself sexually over everyone, male and female. He is having sex with them all. Is that really a good trait to breed and carry on genetically?

    Droop wing, Angel wing or split wing in 1week old chicks. Please help!

    What makes you think that the wings are deformed? It looks like their little feather's are starting to grow in. I would think you would wait until they are grown in before you cull them. Feathers grow on two separate bone span's. Their only a week old.

    Deformed chicks I need to cull.

    I just had to cull a 12 hour old chick. I found a great site for other alternatives to snipping off heads with garden clippers. Look under "culling". Making carbon monoxide via baking soda and white vinegar a plastic container within a container. Also, there is a YouTube channel called, Cogs...
