That's interesting; I didn't know that. Thanks for sharing. For awhile I was keeping my flock at 19, but currently it's at 18 due to a loss. Have they all started crowing yet?My husband hatched a batch of 19 chickens. That's a covid of chickens if you weren't aware. We now have 11 roosters. We built a monastery for them so they can live lives of celibacy away from all those hens. They love it!
