I have 11 hens. RIR's, BO's, and JG's. What would be the best breed of roo to get for my girls, and should I expect any of my girls to go broody?
well RIR rarely go broody Buff orpingtons and JG are broody all the time well my buffs are id say a nice big buff rooster would be great seeing RIR roos are very moody and tend to get aggressive and idk about JG roosters never had one.
Kyle, if you can drive to west GA, we have lavendar orpingtons roosters presently available for sale. I think you should get a pretty lavendar to add to that beautiful group of birds and add beauty and style as well. Have a great time. I had a buff but he sold yesterday! We carry speckled sussex but our roos are currently sold out! Happy New Year and good luck on your search... Oh I do have a picture of the lavendar grouping on our bsa section for roos.
you can never go wrong with a brahma or cochin- mine are sweet to the ladies, and don't attack me... and with a cochin roo you would for sure have future broodies
I say pumpkin hulsey or roundhead...maybe a kelso...heck...get one rooster of every type and work from there!
