Broody hen and her roo!!!!!!!!

[crissycriss]

Can i leave my OEGB broody hen in with her roo after her eggs start hatching or will he hurt his own babies.He is a OEGB too.They are in a 4 x4x8ft high pen inside our open coop.

I keep mine together. The Roo did peck the chicks a time or to, but soon he started taking care of them. I have a Roo and 2 hens and 2 hens with chicks in one large pen.
