Ok... I have been given another coop with a run attached.
I already have a coop with 8 hens in it but I was thinking of maybe getting a rooster.
Now I love fresh eggs but don't really want the fertile eggs mixed with infertile eggs..
So I thought I would put rooster in the other coop with 2-4 hens and that would maybe give me some eggs to incubate in the spring..
All the while leaving my other 4 or so hens alone to produce eggs?
Do you see any problem with this or should I just join the coops and let them all be together?
Thanks to all! Great site!
