Hi All ~
I have a flock of two roosters and 4 hens. They have all been together since they hatched. All have the same Momma and Daddy. I am thinking about letting one of my hens lay on about 4 or 6 eggs. My question is....will I be able to leave all of the other hens and roosters in the coop and run?? Or will I have to remove the roosters before the chicks hatch?? I know "in the old days" we never interferred. This is a tight group, I figured the chicks would automatically be accepted. Am I right?
Comments, thoughs, suggestions......
Oh and I live in SW florida, and the days have been very warm..
