OK, the answer may be obvious, but we have two four month old bantam Bearded d' Uccles, a roo and a hen. We'd like to breed the two bantams but should I keep the roo away from our other standard sized hens who are 2+ years old or so? When would the two bantams breed? Any suggestions? We've never had a roo before.

Thanks!
 
My Belgian d'Uccles and my standard birds are all out there together. He may or may not breed your big girls, but is you only hatch the bantam eggs next spring, there's no problem. I've got a small flock of the little guys (12 to 15) and love them! The hens will brood and raise their babies, which is great too. Mary
