I'm renaming Robbie the Rooster to Casanova.
The roo is slick and doesn't even crow. Crooked Toes, my other rooster, does all the crowing and whatnot. Casanova is a big RIR who doesn't crow who is with the EE and BO girls, and until recently, I didn't even know he was breeding my EEs. That was until I opened an egg and saw it was fertilized.
I really wondered if he was too big to breed them, but obviously not. I caught him today squashing one of my girls flat while mating with her. Evidently, she likes that kind of treatment.
So far, none of the girls seem worse for the wear, but I guess I'll have to keep an eye on them. As I said, he doesn't crow, which makes him a wonderful rooster.
