I’m wondering if roosters pester hens less when there is no confinement. I read that in the wild, red jungle fowl males split off from the flock to form all male groups kinda like deer do, and the alpha runs with the hens. So theoretically does anyone know if this would work on a homestead? Obviously it’s not as much space as in the wild and not as many trees to escape to etc. but if anyone has experience with this, I’d be pleased to hear from you. I like the idea of getting some straight run bantam breeds that are agile and good at free ranging similar to the concept of almost feral chickens you’d see in villages in some parts of the world
