Hi,
I have 8 RIR crosses (all 39 weeks old) in one coup, which I use for eggs, a pure RIR cockerel & a pure RIR pullet in another (both 10 weeks old) which I hope to breed from.
I have just been offered a pair of bantams (I male, one female), as i don't want to breed with the 8 hens (I belive it is known for Bantams & hens to mate), would I be able to keep the pair of Bantams with the pair of RIR's or would the two cockerels fight?
All your compants would be appreciated.
