Is it dangerous to have a large breed rooster with silkies?

[Rbrown369]

I have silkies, polish, leghorn and reds, I’ve always had a silkie rooster.
If I get a Brahma or any other larger rooster will it be dangerous for my silkies?

I haven’t personally been in this situation, but from what I’ve read (a lot), I think it’s one of those things that work out fine for some, while others found it to be a dangerous situation.
I think if it were me, I wouldn’t try it. But I’m not much of a risk taker with my birds.

I wouldn't, just because really only takes one thing to go wrong with that size difference

Hello!

I’ve had a large breed rooster that did just fine with my silkies, even though we introduced him as a full-grown bird. I also have some Old English Game bantams that are about 1/8 the size he was, and they did okay with him too. I think that it would be fine for you to have a large breed rooster with your silkie hens

But the silkies are your house chickens, and the Brahmas would live outside, correct?

YES YES REMOVE THE ROOSTER IT MIGHT KILL THE HENS
