We have 20 week old chickens- As luck would have it we ended up with 5 roosters and 3 hens. We have babies from a hatchery on the way in a couple of weeks. (Hopefully hens!). We really love our Roos, but have arranged for them to be rehomed. Question is, can we keep a roo? Mostly because he’s awesome and to keep a protector when they are free ranging. 1. I’m afraid the ratio of 1 rooster to 3 hens may be a little overwhelming for our little hens. I’ve seen him start to mate with them already.
2. Also afraid he would potentially make it harder to introduce the new chicks in a couple of months.
Advice?
