rooster myths

[chickenlady 58]

A roosters meat tougher then a hens. Is this true or a myth?

That depends to a certain degree upon the age and breed of rooster. Generally young cockerels are no different than pullets for eating. Old roosters make great stew/soup/coq au vin or any other slow cooked dishes.
