Same rooster weeks later. I only gave the hen 3 eggs but he raised them just fine.

I had a rooster raise some chicks last summer. He's a back up rooster and was in my big grow out coop by himself. I had 20 chicks hatched out that needed to go in there and had no where else to put him, so I thought I'd give it a try.

He took right to being a papa, but he wasn't all cuddly and nurturing like your boys seem to be. He was more like a Drill Sargent. He'd come out the pop door first in the morning and stand right there waiting for them to file out. If they dawdled or fooled around he'd give 'em a good peck. The last one out always got spanked just for being last, lol.

After they ate he'd march them right back into the coop again. He'd make them go in and out of the coop 4 or 5 times a day, just because, and kept that up until it was time for them to go bye bye. It was amusing to watch him, he sure made those chicks toe the line.
