I found BYC when I was looking for information on caring for my chickens. A couple months now. I need input on my chickens
 
Hello and welcome to BYC! :frow

Definitely watch the cockerel doesn't over breed the pullet. The ratio of roo to hen should be somewhere around 1 to 8-9, this prevents over breeding. A roo can literally over mate a hen to death. So just watch carefully, and separate the roo out during the day if he is too much.

Good luck with your flock and welcome to ours!
