I purchased 6 female chicks 17 weeks ago. However when arriving at home we found we were sent home with 8 chicks. Now I am aware of 2 roosters...at least I am pretty sure 2 roosters...the one is crowing already and is now wearing a no crow collar. I am okay with keeping one but concerned 2 roosters with 6 hens may be too much. The 2 roosters were sold to me as Olive Eggers. The one in question is quite large and in looks and actions with hens appears to be a rooster but no crowing. Would anyone like to have a nice rooster? I hate to see him killed. He seems harmless. Or could his be a large hen who likes to jump on top of smaller hens?
