I have 6 golden comets now,
come next month I'm going to order 8 more chicks (first time with chicks)
im leaning heavily towards 4-Brahmas, a Black jersey,Barred Plymouth rock,gold or silver laced wyandotte,
how many roosters are acceptable in a small flock? I'm figuring 1,
why would one have more than one?
what are roosters good for? ok quit laughing,,i know about the birds and the bees, but not chickens,
If i order a Brahma rooster,
will i end up with a crossbreed in the others I've listed above?
is this a bad thing?
ok some more laughter for you,
say in 9 months after having the chicks, and there laying eggs,
how does one know if the rooster had a party, and the poor girl is preggers,
can one still gather and eat the eggs?
see im a 50 yr old confused male,
how do i know when to leave mom alone to hatch more chicks?
thanks
