Cflaming, OK that makes me think some more. I had wondered if they'd (all guys) drive each other nuts or if I'd end up with a few seriously sad roos, missing tail feathers, etc. However, since I don't want them pestering the girls, I think I'll try separation. Maybe I'll add1 roos into the hen house. I'm probably over thinking this. It's about a hundred degrees here today. My brain is off. Every chicken is panting under my deck and around the base of my house. Just wondering can a male roos damage the interior parts of a female if she is mated too young? Answer if you like, but I'll look for a topic thread on this. Thanks, all of you, it's great to keep the conversations going!
