Hi all,
Thank you so much for all the answers you have provided to me. I truly appreciate them.
Your answers will definitely help, since I am just keeping chicken as a hobby and don't know much about them except few thing that I have seen in my grandparents house when they had chickens and ducks.
since someone asked I live in central coast. I have to actually get rid of the rooster as soon as he crowing because of the limits. So I was wondering whether it will hurt his partner, or she will get a long with the other two...
Also about the food, I have two chicken feeders in the yard and I mix Dumor chicken starter and grower/finisher. It is available to them all day long. I sometimes give them cooked rice, cottage cheese, apple, corn, cranberry, wheat bran mix with bread, or hanging a lettuce for their distraction and play. It is beside their food and its occasional. sometimes, I give them scratch or their feed on the ground on my way out , especially when they come to me. But I never left their feeders empty and I have noticed that they come eat from them during the day.
I am not sure about the sound as you guys explained, but the sound is kind of a threatening sound to me (low tone-high tone clucking) and usually two of them ( the new Hampshire rooster, the orpington hen) makes that, although it may varies. I have checked the area, there is no danger of the predator. Also it doesn't seem they have problems with each other since they eat together, sleep together and even sit together on the roost for the rest.
Thank you again for all of your help.
