roo question

[hatchcrazzzy]

my fertility rate has gone from 90 % to 50% i noticed today that my
roos spurs are at least 2 inches long i also watched him try to mount
hens and he seems to be having a hard time staying on could this be
because of the long tallons

I don't imagine it's the spurs.

How many hens to your roo?

Does he have favorites.

As a kid, I always liked to remove the spurs off of my roos. (But you have to be careful where you snip them or they can bleed and get infected... learned that the hard way once.)

What kind of chickens are they? Check them to see that they don't have any poop caked on around the vents to make sure he is able to mate them. It's also possible if they are really fuzzy he might not be making contact as well.
