Breed? Roo? Pullet?

I hope she figures it out quickly. As soon as those two fellas' hormones start raging (any day, now) they're likely to breed that lone pullet to death ... literally. They need to be separated ASAP!

I know! Honestly, im willing to take the hen from her once she figures out those two are roos, she is so adorable!

If all she wants are pets and doesn't mind having no eggs, the two cockerels should get along just fine with no ladies around to impress.

I always find that amusing. The "no roosters" rules are obviously instated by people who have never truly experienced chickens. If they had, they'd know how much noise is made when a hen is playing keep-away with a captured bug or other tasty tidbit. Loud, frantic cackling ensues until someone eats the prize. Worse, it's not always the original hen that gets it, so the noise lasts as long as the chase is on. Now THAT"S some loud chicken noise!

Exactly!! Also when they make their egg noise. I have two RIR hens and both of them are crazy loud.
