Is it bad or good?

[The Red Rooster]

I have a hen that keeps getting fertilized by the roosters. She gets attacked by them almost all the time. She's not my only hen. But for some reason they always want to fertilized her.
Is that bad?

It can be - how many roosters do you have? And how many hens?

is she the only one laying? I thought roos only went for the ones laying..

I have 4 roos and about 9 hens. I'll have to count the hens again. But I know I have more hens then roos.

No shes not laying. I don't know why they always mate her. Maybe because shes a bantam?

3 too many roosters. She may not be laying because of the stress from being mated all the time. If she's the lowest ranking hen, she will get more of the mating.

Its mainly the Silkie roo thats mating her. The 2 month old roos try, but I don't think they really are mating her. I'm getting some more bantams on Sunday.
