Roosters

[ih66series]

What breeds can fertilize the most hens? What breeds are known for "broody" hens?

 

[Goose and Fig]

I never heard of any breed of roo being the most fertile, but silkies and cochins and game hens are all notorious broodies. Orps on occasion as well.

Ifn you are talking about Large Fowl, I would go with anything that didn't have feathered legs. Don

I keep Buff Orpington roosters... I love them! They are friendly (never attacked anyone), funny, and, in relation to your question, do a great job with the ladies!
