Most roosters that I've had together end up eventually fighting. This guy pictured (I named Rainbow) was chased down recently and would have been pecked unmercifully (possibly to death) by an Ameraucana mix cockerel had I not gone out to see what was going on. I had to choose between the two.

The plan for future is to have a rooster only area, where they won't be able to see much of any hens. That area now has one rooster, a momma hen, and her cockerel.

Weed out the ones that refuse to get along, but I don't think your Orp mixes will give you too many fits. RIR and Dominique can be touchier roosters, but yours seem to be taking more after the docile Orps. Generally, guys will figure out who's boss in short order, even if there might be some nipped combs and a lot of noise and show.

Hi @sfaith102

Good to have you!

Thanks! Also I have been ogling awards that people have here and, I'm wondering how you get them. In particular the BYC Friend award.

Genetics addicts: What would a tailless, double tufted Araucana roo over #1)Svart Hona, #2)Brown Leghorn, #3)RIR
What could the birds look like?
What color eggs would they lay?
Here's the roo:

@sfaith102
Look up at the top of your page. 3d from right you will see a button for "Account".

Hover your mouse over it and it will drop down. Second on the list is
"Signature". Click on that and there you are
