when do hens except mating? Im asking this because i have 2 older hens, 3 younger pullets, and 2 younger cockerels, around the same age as the pullets. The younger cockerels seems to have been mating with the older hens, but when they try the younger hens the hens would just run away like they are attacked. Do hens mate when they start laying eggs?
