Okay, from what I've read in other topics, it seems the acceptable ratio for roos to hens is anywhere from 1 roo to 6-8 hens to 1 roo to 7-11 hens.
We currently have 13 girls, all about 4 weeks old, and will be adding 12 more in two weeks, plus a rooster.
So, that will put us at 25 hens, and one rooster. Is one enough or will the poor guy run himself simple?
Thanks-
