    Can you put a Chabo (Japanese Bantam) roo with regular size hens ?

    Hello Friends, Hypothetically, is it safe to have a Chabo roo as the only roo in a flock of ISA brown chickens ? The chickens are very chill and friendly. Never had a roo tho. (I love that you guys call roosters roo, like how cute is that) Thanks
