I'm sorry I can't offer any advice

I just wanted to tell you I had the same issue once. Someone gave me a black Silkie Roo that did not want anything to do with the girls. I had to rehome him after 2 weeks because I had another Roo I didn't know about in my flock. But my friend I gave him to said the same thing. She had him for 4 months and had absolutely no interest in her hens, always hung out by himself. We called him Romeo the gay Roo!

Is he young. Some males take longer to mature.

Maybe you need to take her to the hairdresser for a new "do" and then a sexy bikini wax....oh and don't forget the wine!

Is the japanese bantam roo in the same pen? Some of my silkie roos will keep to themselves if they are low in the pecking order and housed with other roos.

He is 2 years old and yes the japenease bantam rooster is in the same coop. And The black silkie rooster is the highest in pecking order .

There ya go...That is why he is not breeding. Remove him out of the pen by himself with only the blk silkie hen.
