First of all I'd like mention that I will be using our almost year old Cuckoo Marans cockerel. I'm really loving his temperament so I don't plan on keeping another breeding male due to this. I simply don't have time to deal with aggression during breeding.
Tidbit hasn't begun to show signs of attempting to mate our current females so I'm definitely going to wait until after he does.
I already plan on getting some Delaware chicks for meat so once those are close to butcher age, I'll begin breeding.
I won't be getting more chicks until after the Delawares are feathered out and can be moved out of the brooder so that I can make sure I have room. I'm just planning ahead so that I won't be scrambling to figure it out.
What breeds would be best to pair with him?
