Hi I’m new

[CluckerFamily]

Thanks for this I was going to get rid of one because it attacks me sometimes I do hatch chicks so Thankyou for this info

If you do get rid of one and decide to hatch chicks, you can always keep track the percent of fertile eggs when you go to cook the eggs. This will help you to know how many eggs you should set and the percent of the eggs that may hatch.

Yes I kind of joined because of this how many cockerels do you suggest with my 13 hens

One.
I see you also have a girl with a swollen lower leg. This could be due to an over-mating injury if she was trying to escape and was wrestled into submission.

Welcome! I have tried the multiple rooster thing and it ended up a bloody mess. Both were alive but one was sulking in the corner. They were hatched together and raised with 10 hens. I placed an ad for a free GLW and he got a new home. Peace was restored
