In the Brooder
I read about this on another thread. If I do in fact have 2 roosters. I am keeping the mellow one out of the 2. I have 3 new hens in a crate now. Maybe 10 weeks old. They have not been outside yet. How do I introduce the Rooster to the hens? He is reaching about 6 mos old, hatched in April.
Do I let the hens have the coop so they can get used to it? And have the Rooster stay in the crate beside the coop? And let him out for a week or so? While keeping the hens in the coop so they get used to the coop and also see the Rooster? Any suggestions?
Thanks! New to raising chickens.
