My BR roo has been taking to jumping at me and my kids the last few weeks. My dilemma is--I don't want to get rid of him, (although I've threatened him with the soup pot), so what if I confined him to the enclosed run during the day while the girls are out freeranging, and put the girls back in with him in the evening until they are let out in the morning. Would that be enough time for him to fertilize eggs? I would eventually like to hatch out some eggs to replenish my laying hens.
