Multi Hens and One Roo?

[RAWR]

is okay to to have multi hens with only one roo? my grandmother is wanting to get one roo and 5-10 hens. would they all be okay?

Better than ok. They'd be great! It is reccomended for peak fertility of the eggs and for the hens' sanity to have between 8-12... So make sure she gets enough hens to keep ol' boy busy.
