Okay, so we want a rooster our flock consists of 3 rir 2 barred rocks 1 ee and 1 buff orpington. I have never had a roo but my husband really wants one. how does it work I love my eggs don't want to eat a bunch of fert eggs. If we were to get one what breed is really friendly and could it mate with all of them? Would we have a crazy bunch of hybred chickens? If so then what breed would be best for breeding and freindly and do they breed all the time? Please help me understand how to raise a rooster. Do they live in a different area of the yard? what do i feed them can they eat the same food? if not then how do i keep it different? and if we get a rooster and quarentine it for a moth and it is healthy can i put it right in with the girls or will they attack the way they do with new hens? so many questions please help. thanks
