No. Do you want fertile eggs to hatch? If so you would have to have 1 rooster per 8 hens, or switch him around.

I have a few that are young roosters. And 2 hens. But I have 42 young babies so I'm just starting out but I have seen a few roosters hop on the girls. If you zoom in you can very clearly see a bullseye.

that pic isn't very good apparently. but I definitely seen a bullseye. Ill crack the ones from yesterday and look again

Ok, lol. I didn't see a bullseye, but it probably is the picture quality. I'll look again, and see if I can see anything.

I'd say yes. That is a beautiful yolk BTW.

I can see a faint ring, so maybe.

Its so pretty! I have been giving my hens cayenne pepper in an attempt to get prettier yolks, and after about 3 days of giving it to them I started getting deep orange yolks! I love them!
