Not sure if this is the right space to post this but here goes anyway. I have 21 chicks that are 4 to 5 weeks old. They are getting big but i want to know when it will be good to introduce them to my roo and other 5 girls. Of those chicks there are 3 different cockerels, a Plymouth rock, a RIR, and a Brown Leghorn. Am I going to have to worry about my rooster going after these young men, or should they be okay for awhile yet. I plan to sell the rooster I have right now to my neighbor after these guys get old enough. If anyone can help with answers it would be greatly appreciated.
Hens go broody when you don’t want them to… and won’t go broody when you do.
