I'm completely overrun with fowl!!!!! I have 8 roos, and 6 hens, all but 2 of the roos, and all of the hens live in a big stall in the barn. Two darling roos live in my backyard in a small coop, and a humongous coop is being built. I'm considering selling some chickens to make room for some more roosters. I LOVE Roosters, and want to know if you guys think I should sell.
I would be curious to know how roos will do without hens to **hope this is tactful**... do the deed with? Will they be stressed without girls in the pic? Will this make them more aggressive or less because they dont have to worry about hens? I am very curious to see what others have to say. I too loved roos too until I have had 2 go 'bad' on me. One has been crockpotted and the other is about to just get its neck wrung if he spurs me one more time... grrrr!
