So when I decided to get chickens in the first place I thought 5 hens and a roo... 3 months later... I have 13 chickens total. I have 11 hens and 2 roos. Is this too many roos per hens? Both my roos are bantam -don't know if that matters- . One is a mexi game cock mix and the other is a game hen mix(with feathered feet). 4 bantam game hen mix -I think-. 3 leghorns. 1 EE. 1 EEmix. 2 Black star. I put them in when everyone was going up to roost. I guess we'll see how it goes tomorrow.
1 roo for your hens would be best... especially in a coop... free range you might get away with it if one is a follower. good luck with your birds.
So far the new roo seems to be submissive. The other roo does go after him, but he trys to run away. So I guess that's ok. They dont seem to be bothering the hens much at all.
