which breed is the best breed to have a rooster as...i have hawks in my neighborhood and i was just wondering which breed would be the best to protect my 5 hens
Nothing crested, no polish or silkies. I would watch for too big of a comb, we had a leghorn who had a huge comb and it hindered his vision. I thing a game rooster would be good.
I have 1 white leghorn, 1 rhode island red, 1 game, and a lot of different game crosses. The game and leghorn are the 1st to alert the others, but the rir is louder.
