I have a pair together, and my hen just started brooding. Should I separate the rooster from her during this time? I am worried about when the chicks hatch....
 
Not necessarily. My rooster protects his hen when she's on the nest. He'll even bring her food at times. He guards her and it's so sweet.

What can I do with Ranger Classic roosters other than eating them when they are a few weeks old?
