Why? Health reasons or looks?I was at 14 but culled 2 chicks.
What rooster is with the crosses?I candled my big incubator because it’s easy and I don’t have to handle the eggs. But anyway, from the crosses, every egg was developing. That rooster had 12 hens at the time I was collecting. The pure RIRs had 5 clears and that rooster only had 3 hens!
My backup RIR, Marty.What rooster is with the crosses?
Maybe switch them and see if the rates change in the groupsMy backup RIR, Marty.
I thought about that, but there’s a reason he’s the backup. The other one is the best physical representation of the breed. Definitely some food for thought, though.Maybe switch them and see if the rates change in the groups
Yeah, but it could give some insight as to if it's the rooster or the hens' faults for the clears.
