This might not be the right forum but how do I increase my bantams fertility?

I didnt even know there was a way to do that, is it a hen or rooster? I always figured they just do the deed and then thats it i know that after a hen mates she continues to lay fertile eggs for at least a week after one mating. Hopefully some one else here knows a bit more?.

Well, besides starting off with fertile eggs, its important to store them properly ahead of time. Make sure to keep them between 50-60 degrees to increase hatchability.

Hi, I need 3 cold hardy, good egg-laying bantam chicken breeds that can live with 1 guinea hen and live in confinement and is very docile. Any suggestions? Or am I getting to picky? And this might be the wrong forum but it's the only 1 that deals with bantams so.
