Dumb questions ahead! Warning.
Now that my bantams are 8 weeks old, seems we have 3 and 3. They currently co-exist well, but I realize that is not going to last? How many roos can I keep, and can I keep in the same coop? If I need to get rid of roos, at what age do I offer them/give away? If I want to eat my hens eggs, do the hens have to be separate from the roos? I know that fertilized eggs are edible, but how many of you all actually eat the ones that are?
Thanks from this chicken beginner.
