I herd online you need 1 rooster per 12 hens but i have 28 pullets and im heading towards keeping all three of my roos is it okay to have 3 roos for 28 hens?.
That's something you will have to judge for yourself, if you are seeing too much of the feathers being worn off than you should reduce your rooster numbers.
It will depend on the roosters. Some will work together, set a hierarchy, and go with that for long periods of time. Some will have temporary truces, and some will fight to the death. Father/sons if the son is raised under the Father, tend to work best. Brothers or flock mates are chancy, some work, some don't. A lot will depend on the amount of space you have. Mrs K
