Please post any recommendations on a website that instructs newcomers to the process of artificially inseminating chickens.

I am redesigning my system of management. I have one large coop, several large cages, and a small coup. Yet I have Marans, Dorkings, and Javas. I have a couple Giant roos roaming the yard.

I have a single injured Java roo(dislocated his wing at a young age and previous owner didn't notice until it was too stunted to do anything), my main roo was killed. I have two Dorking roos, two Marans roos, and then the two free-ranging roosters.

What I am thinking of doing is, placing all the hens in the large coop, where they have plenty of room to do their thing and plenty of nest boxes. While the roosters, I can distribute through the small coop and large cages and tether them in the yard for exercise and sun.

another bit of information

I think the above is mostly geared toward same day transfer however I do see some reference to storage of samples if needed in the last 2 articles.
