I have 3 bantam hens, 1 bantam roo, and 1 standard hen. They live in a 20x20 moveable run by day and sleep in a 6x4 coop by night. I usualy let the one standard hen free range. I am considering letting one of the bantam hens incubate 3-6 eggs and get chicks. I am 100% not willing to cull any baby roosters. Do y'all think that this would be a wise choice? Would getting too many roo chicks upset the pecking order and get violent? What's your advice?
