Hi everyone! I'm wondering if anyone can answer a few questions I have about my breeding set up.
(Hopefully) for simplicity, I'm going to separate my hens and keep my roosters together this year for breeding. The roosters happily live together in the same coop, and I don't think that would be the case if I separate them for a few months into separate coops for breeding.
SO -- how often do I need to put the roosters in with the hens to keep a good rate of fertility? One will have 2 hens and the other will have 3-4.
Thanks!
