my thoughts exactly. especially since it is likely that my hachery silkies are going to include a roo or two. the old guys may just have to admire from afar.
has anyone ever successfully integrated an independant OLD roo into a new young flock of hens?
My reason for asking is that my flock was decimated 2 years ago, leaving only 2 beautiful roos living in my woodpile. One is a Pheonix, the other a georgeous big red guy. They survive quite well...
