I would have to try really hard to find a egg not fertilized... my roo stays busy

Lol! So does mine! My husband checked quite a few and said they were good. So my mess up didn't go behind him and check. Lol! I got rid of them at 7 days.

I guess I need to build another lil coop for him to stay in to give ladies a break

 

[LIN0125]

I was gonna ask if I should put mine away from my girls for a bit. He can be a bit much! Do people take the rooster away for a bit

 

[NC Chick Man82]

Yes some people dont let roo stay with hen only for reproduction is roo allowed around hens... my roo was raised with my hens
