Genentic question: 2 roosters over flock...

[makmm]

So I have 2 roosters over my flock a lavender ameraucana and a bantam cochin. My question is: When an egg is fertilized can both roosters influence the chick or does just one of the roosters influence the chick?

One sperm to one ova, so only one rooster will fertilize any given egg.

One sperm to one ova, so only one rooster will fertilize any given egg.

Yep.....each chick will have only one male parent.
