Soooo I have a roo

[smorris2]

Ok, so I didn’t want a roo, only bought pullets and hens, and so of course one of my pullets is a rooster. So is 1 roo for 14 hens a good ratio? Right now only about half of them are mature and egg laying but within a month or so the others will be old enough. I have read that one for every 6-8 is good but I’m NOT buying another one.

 

[The Phantom]

That’s a good ratio.

 

[Chick or Treat]

Yeah, that’s is a good ratio!

That is a perfect ratio.
No other roosters needed unless you ever consider breeding them.
