Who will be the daddy?

[Swastik Choudhari]

I had this question from a long time...who fertilizes the egg if the cicken mate twice with different partners?

So i see this often.. My young rooster mate with my chickens and as thier mating finishes the dominant rooster mount them again!
The question arises who fertilizes the eggs the first or the last?

The first for the first egg, the second for the next egg

I've read several articles that say the sperm can live anywhere from 4 days to up to a month once transferred to the hen, so it's anyone's guess which eggs are fertilized by which roo.

Doesn't matter who's first, second or so on.
The strongest, fastest and luckiest sperm will fertilize the egg.
The sperms job is to find the egg first. With each egg the race is on. No way of knowing which it will be when with multiple partners.
