I’m attempting at breeding a PR hen around 5 years old to an EE cockerel near 13 weeks of age. I’ve put them in a small coop together with two other hens to keep them company, and she keeps pecking at him. I was expecting her too, but it’s been about 18 hours since I first put them together and I’de expect her to stop by now. The other hens treat him kindly, but he’s never crowed or tried to mount them. We have other roosters and I thought that if I were to put him with a few hens by himself he would be fine and start to crow, but he’s just hiding in the corner. Do you know a way I could get them to breed? I was hoping to get some OE from the two.
