Roo question

[jettgirl24]

Hi All,

I've got a queston about my (suspected) roo... If he turns out to be a roo it will mean that I have him plus 3 girls, so it's a pretty small flock and I can't get any more thanks to county regulations. If our neighbors don't have a freak out and we are able to keep him, will he be too much for the girls? Should I send him to a home (which I've already found just in case) with more girls to spread his love around so to speak?

That amount should be ok.

I would keep him if you can. What breed is he?

I would keep him if you like him and you can. I have 26 hens and my roo pics the same 4-5 girls and leaves the rest alone.

I'm hoping we do get to keep him cuz he's really pretty and at least at this point he's the friendliest by far. He's a Buff Orpington. If he turns out to be a roo and we can get him to sleep in long enough that the neighbors don't murder us I'd love to hatch some chicks from him next year if any of my hens go broody
