my husband convinced me to wait until spring and get another batch of chicks instead of getting a rooster now when it will be too cold brood chicks in the garage by the time they are laying regularly. he's such a spoil sporthi everyone, I am in Circleville and looking for a gentle rooster that is an hour away or less. My pullets are Faverolle and should start laying in the next month. Looking for a Faverolle or maybe Brahma or larger Silky that is people friendly. My middle child had a bad experience last spring with our Cochin rooster attacking him, so we got rid of them and got a different breed. We started with 8 and thanks to a raccoon we are down to 3. We want to incubate our own eggs after the girls start laying. Thanks everyone.
