What about splitting the current hens up?
I wouldn't split the group that's getting along, as it is you only have three pullets/hens, and a single rooster can easily cover many more than three... watch your girls combs and feathers when the rooster starts breeding them, he may need more hens (depends on the rooster). You can decide what to do for your big boy once you have a handle on what's troubling him. Please keep us updated on your findings, and pictures of him, his feet, legs, poop, etc., are welcome.What about splitting the current hens up?
