Cockerel mounting chickens back bear and bleeding

[Lilysbackgardenchickens]

My cockerels obviously mint my chickens but the chickens are starting to lose back feathers and slight bleeding how do I help the chicken and stop the rooster doing this

To stop the rooster, you will need to put him in a crate or his own coop.
How many hens do you have for the rooster?
How old is the rooster?

It may be that there are 3 roosters to 13 hens. All the hens get mounted by each rooster and when one rooster sees a hen being mounted, he then needs to mount her also. You ladies would find it nice to either have a break from all the roosters to heal or possibly getting rid of one or two roosters would help... it depends on the reason why you have 3 roosters.

If you do get rid of two, there won’t be a need to keep the one separate from the hens. He won’t have another rooster to compete against.

I have another question can I keep bantam hens with chicken hens

I only have one breed. My sister has many breeds altogether. I say yes, and keep a rooster to help break up girl drama.
What kind of roosters do you have? Are they too big for bantams?
