I have a silver duckwing rooster, two Sebright's hen, one Easter Egger, and three Australorps hens. Will my rooster ever successfully breed with the big ones? I heard that they can but the Australorps are a bit bigger than normal sized chickens and he never attempted to mate with the Easter Egger. I have seen him attempt to mate with the Australorps, but it never works, the hens don't push him off, but they do get annoyed after about a minute. Now, here is the big problem, I have been finding... white stuff... on the hens' tails and it is not poo and I don't even want to think about what it is. It's gross. Can my rooster breed with them and is it ok to allow or will the eggs be too big for the chick or something? I don't know that much about mixed breeding.
 
Can he?
Well, sounds like he has tried and obliviously can't reach the intended target in order to fertilize any eggs. He may figure it out, or not.

If he does get the job done, no problem with them hatching due to the size disparity of the parents.

So it is ok. Thanks!
