rooster mating age?

[chickeneer45]

at what age can roosters start mating with chickens?

also, would it be terrible if a rooster mated with its sister or mother? (is that possible?)

Arooster can mate with any Female whether it being its Mother, It sister even a duck!! Its Age can be any. A single cockeral may start mounting pullets at 10 weeks while it takes others a while.

Normal around here is 15-16 weeks for cockerels to begin "attempting" to mate - but I have older hens and they aren't too accommodating to the new boys.
