My rooster he is 4 month old and is in with 1 hen in a chicken tractor beside the coop but he will not breed her and i really need some fertile eggs








THANKS FOR LOOKING
 
That's pretty young. What breed? It would be the rare breed that would be sexually mature at that age.
I'd give him a couple more months. Cockerels that age are notorious for having fertility issues. Wait till a minimum of 6 months to use them. 1 year is better.

Give him a couple of months, and I bet he will do just fine. I did have a rooster who didn't mate until he was 8 months old, though.
