The one chick we got that turned out to be a rooster is a bantam mille fleur, has a deformed foot, and appears to be the total low man on the totem pole out of the group (always running behind, last to get a shot at the food, etc). Should I assume we won't be getting any fertilized eggs? We have 4 standard sized hens and 4 other bantams.
If we did, how would we know? We weren't planning on a rooster, but now that we have one, would be fun to experience hatching eggs, but since we want to eat most of the eggs, how would this work? (BTW, I can't watch over the chickens on regular basis to see if anything romantic is going on out there).
Thanks!
