Hello

My hens are lovers, not fighters!

But I think Ben, my rooster is comatose! He never fights, and crows softly!

Hello, Carlos, and welcome to BYC and back to poultry keeping. There are many pluses to game fowl. They are great mothers and foragers, and they are beautiful. The negatives are that the roosters are extremely rooster aggressive, and the hens do not lay a lot of eggs.

Good morning Carlos and welcome to the BYC flock!!!

Welcome Nice to have you here!

It sounds like you have game birds. They are not the best layers. If you ever end up with a male from them, you will only ever have the one unless you have multiple enclosures as the males will fight each other viciously.
I'm glad that you now have the birds and there is one less cock fighter in the world. It is a horrific 'sport'.

yes they are game birds can i still get eggs

thanks to everybody for the welcoming it is very warming

You will still get eggs, just not at the rate as other breeds. Any pics of your flock?
