I just set old english game banties under my NHR. I have six NHR girls and no roo. I am thinking about keeping a bantie roo... will a bantie cover a full size hen successfully? I'm a little early in the asking, but someone must have answer. thanks
Yes. My bantam Barred Rock successfully mates with my full-sized Red Stars. Although he does struggle for balance sometimes. ;-)
OMG I am not supposed to have a rooster, but I am kinda hoping for a little guy to protect/breed my girls now. I met the flock these eggs came from and they are only about the size of a robin. I can just see him strutting around the hen house with that look.... only 1/2 the size of my girls but full of his responsibilities as the protector and husband to 6 ladies and one old grandmother. thanks for the imput.
