    Cockerel/rooster order

    So far my temperament of all my birds has been outstanding but now that the younger bird are getting closer to age(but not there yet) and luckily out of work due to a recent surgery. I've had a bunch if time to just sit and observe the flock as a whole and they seemingly are living in harmony...

    Cockerel/rooster order

    Thank you! I mean everything is a possibility. Since I have nothing but time to harvest from my garden and make stuff out of things I'm allowed to lift(Surgical reasons) and sit and watch the birds(I feel retired and I'm 30). I'm going to continue to watch them. Hell I watched them for probably...

    Cockerel/rooster order

My white leghorns are still d!(*$ but I've noticed they're like that with all the birds. This is the 3rd time she's went broody on my this year(and a first...

    Cockerel/rooster order

    What's confusing to me though is I know a few people that had two roos with less hens than myself and the roosters got along just fine. I myself in my flock have nearly the perfect 1:10 ratio or magic number. They haven't went after each other at all and both seem to know where their rank is in...

    Cockerel/rooster order

    So I have 20 birds currently and of the 20, 2 are male. Also have a broody hen sitting on 6 due to hatch by the end of the week(fingers crossed all female...but statistically not in my favor). I'm aware the "magic number" is 1 roo to 10 hens. But at times that seems to be more or less a...
