Ok. My hens and rooster are both @8 1/2 months old. Roo is mating with one or two occasionally but not consistently. And it seems to last only a few seconds. Only one hen is laying so far. Is he just too young to know what he is doing? Should the others be laying already too? I let them run in the large 40x40 run during the day and put them in the coop each evening. They seem content and happy to just eat and poop but no eggs! I feed a mix of laying pellets, scratch, sunflower seeds, meal worms, oyster shells and table scraps as treats. Am I doing something wrong or are they still just too young to lay?
