Hi everyone
I purchased three 6-8 week old chicks, that were all apparently female. I was never planning on having a rooster, but as it turns out I have two cockerels and a pullet! That's alright though!
What I do need to know though, is how many hens I will need, to keep the two cockerels from fighting as they get older? I know there is an ideal number, but for me, fewer would be better, as while my coop is large enough for more, I'm not sure I could handle too many.
Thank you for your help!
