In the Brooder
so I just added a 2 year old Brahma rooster to my flock of 9 hens. They needed better protectection from the hawks etc. no Toe joe adjusted well, the girls were t sure about him at first. Now his name is no toe joe due to frost bite he apparently had a d lost pretty much all his toes! He can still perch luckily and roosts with the gals as normal. Will this toe issue be a problem with protecting my girls? We also want to let our broody girl sunny hatch some eggs. How do I know if he’s even doing his thing or if he’s just not interested. I always spy on them in the yard from a window. He sees me everytime . I need to make sure he’s a worthy rooster or do I need a new guy. I couldn’t bare to get rid of him but I want actoister that definitely does his duties and hopefully not aggressive. No toe joe is not aggressive towards myself, kids or even cats and dogs. I feel lucky with that. Thank you I find great input here from very helpful and knowledgeable individuals.
