I have a "stray" breed rooster ( an Ameracuna, a gift) in my flock that is too pretty to get rid of. However I'm trying to build a pure flock of rose comb Dominekers an I wonder, how long does it take for a fertilized egg to be laid? I'm thinking I will remove "pretty boy" from my flock whenever a hen starts actign broody, ( I have a couple of hens that set last year) but I'm not sure how about the cycle of -fertilize, lay-. how much time.
