Help! I have two roosters that are about 9 months old. They grew up together and seem to get along. I have 16 hens total. I am finding that one of my roosters (a black copper Maran) is pretty decent to my hens, for the most part and the other (a silver laced Wyandotte) can be a complete jerk. My girls are pretty torn up from them mating. Sometimes they double team. I have noticed that they each have their favorites. My question is, is this normal for roosters? Should I be worried for my hens? They have 3 hens that they were raised with that dont seem to be bothered by them. They free range for several hours in the late afternoon but are kept in my coop/pen during the rest of the day. Its pretty good size and has room for al of them.
